Montezuma's Well in Northern Arizona

My friend Krash and I went to Montezuma's well on my birthday (Feb. 7th.)  This is a relatively deep natural water well, actual depth is speculative.  There seems to be several answers on this.  However, the vents that feed the Well are between 40 and 50 feet.  This is actually, well a sinkhole with natural water and has been an oasis for centuries.  The sinagua indians inhabited the area and fabricated stone dwellings in the rock on the west face of the Well.  The bottom has been measured at 55 feet but with the way the water continuously flows can be much deeper under the sand and pressure.
