The ground under Edneyville
Edneyville sits at 2,173 feet in the Clear Creek watershed. Lewis Creek, Byers Creek, Henderson Creek, Coon Branch and Saconon Creek all run inside a mile and a half. Hayesville loam is the main soil: 23% of the area on 7 to 15 percent slopes and 19% on 2 to 7 percent. Wet soil follows the creeks on 16% of the ground, led by Codorus loam at 8%, with the seasonal water table about 21 inches down. Only 17% of the ground is at a 15% slope or steeper, and bedrock is within 40 inches under 5%. The nearest NOAA station, 2.3 miles off, averages 57 inches of precipitation a year.
What that means for an Edneyville property
With 76.8% of lots at an acre or more, the scale changes. A wet area is a field or a long edge of lawn, and drainage means a long drain line or a broad swale a mower can cross. Gravel drives are long, and on slow-soaking loam they rut where water crosses, which is a driveway grading job. Gentle slopes keep retaining walls low and make almost any spot workable for a patio or fire pit. Big lots also need tree work and seasonal cleanup.
Steep slope landscaping in Henderson County, NC
Within a mile and a half of Edneyville, the USDA soil survey maps 17% of the ground at a 15% slope or steeper. Steep ground is the exception near Edneyville. Where there is some, a hillside yard usually needs the water handled first, then a wall or terrace to hold the cut, then the patio, steps, or planting on top. For a steep Edneyville lot the usual pieces are boulder or block retaining walls to hold the grade, drainage and grading to move runoff off the slope, natural stone steps to tie the levels together, and erosion control where a bank has already started to move. Terracing a slope into usable, mowable levels is the same job done in stages.
