Alas, the workshop and house are 75 feet higher than the streams.
With good design the ram pump will lift water several hundred feet in
elevation. The Heartwood shack sits about 20 feet above the stream. The
hill behind the house where the tanks will be buried is about three hundred
feet higher, although I doubt I will put them that high. Head and volume
can be traded.
