Have you ever taken a plunge in Jacob’s Well? If so, consider yourself one of the lucky ones. Taking a splash in the waters of this natural area in Wimberley is at risk of becoming a thing of the past. Flowing from the bed of Cypress Creek, this crystal clear water stream with its trademark 10-foot-wide hole is one of the beauties of Hill Country, but it is also a microcosm of the effects of drought, water depletion and climate change in the state.
