That spring is fed by snow melt from high above the switchbacks, in an area nobody travels.
Agree about the great quality of the water, but do you think it is true that it comes from snow melt above SB 23? Is there any snow up there to melt any more? I always assumed that it came from deep down under since the water still flows long after the snow above it has melted.
One other thought, though. Steve was there at 9:30 am. At this time of the year, you may find it frozen earlier than that.
