my well is fairly shallow, 173ft but it is filtered through gravel all the way. I dont drink from the big springs, there is one between rainbow and blair that comes out of a bluff on the left side of the river. Every time I stop by there I get a drink. It is always refreshing. On the 11pt about 300yd below morgan spring float camp there is a small spring on the left side of the river that is hidden behind a tree right next to the river. Great water. Every time you swim in a lake/pond/river you drink water.
