![]() For those of you living off the beaten path (not just in Elko) where water is a bit scarce and digging a well can be as expensive as the land is cheap...has anyone ever considered installing an in ground swimming pool with a liner? The pool would probably have to be put an extra 3' below ground to avoid freezing. It would require a cover of some sort to prevent evaporation, and some system for it to not become a swamp...but a 20,000 gallon whole pool set up is about $5K, not that you would need 20,000 gallons.

![]() Google wildlife guzzlers. Building them in dry areas for wildlife used to be popular sportsmen's club projects. Might give you some ideas. I didn't realize swimming pools were that inexpensive.

I just did some research and found out that using swimming pool liners is not recommended because there are chemicals that can leach into the water. They do, however, make liners that can be used for water storage. |
