About This Spring

Description:

This spring is stagnant, bubbling up and pouring over the edge of the rocks enclosing it. It is off to the side of the road, not easily noticeable. It is at the bottom of a hiking trail, off to the side of a dirt turnaround/parking lot. There are huge stones that lead up to it. Use caution approaching the spring, for it is very mossy and wet…
