The Lake Lowry Seeps originate from the unconfined surficial aquifer. The seeps are located in the bottoms of three wooded ravines that incise the surficial sands of the trail ridge. The surrounding vegetation is composed of sandy soil and oak scrub forest, commonly found on the ridge. The ravines are 40 to 50 feet deep at their heads. The combined flow of the seeps flows to Lake Lowry and becomes part of the Alligator Creek chain flow from Blue Pond to Lake Brooklyn.
