+ToonAl Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Can anyone tell me what the device is in the picture? They are all over the Rouge Valley area but I finally decided to ask what they are. And yes after I get the right answer sarcastic irreverent and just plain witty answers are welcome. ps. And yes I am looking for more than "a lock attached to blue post." Quote Link to comment
+northernpenguin Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Typically a monitoring well. Quote Link to comment
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) Looks a little tall... but I also would say a monitoring well. Color is a little daft.... most I see are bright yellow. Hmmmm.... all over Rouge Valley, you say? Sounds as if it may be a closed/capped landfill. Edited August 20, 2012 by Gitchee-Gummee Quote Link to comment

+Viajero Perdido Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Yep, a piezometer by another name. Often used above unstable slopes to measure ground water level. Higher water level means slope failure more likely. Quote Link to comment
