They ran a solid pipe under the gravel driveway, then branched that into three pipes for the actual field. I didn't see the actual install, but the stuff the put in looked like carpet rolls, with lots of floppy ends. I would guess the end closer to the house is 6-8 feet deep, maybe closer to 3-4 feet at the far end.

The most memorable event that took place was a trip up the steepest incline on the farm pulling an old New-Idea baler with a pony-motor for power and a haywagon. I had just talked my Dad into buying an old John Deere B with 6-speeds ahead and I was real proud of it, except it was a little smaller than the Case tractor that we normally
