Soil and ground
Mapped soils in the area are Cecil at 3 of 5 sampled points, with Hayesville and Pacolet at one each. NRCS rates 3 somewhat limited and 2 very limited for septic absorption fields, for slow water movement and slope. Elevation is about 1,028 feet, with slopes up to 20 percent, and Cane Creek is 0.6 mile off. That is generalized soil survey data, not a property evaluation; individual lots differ and each needs its own site evaluation.
