    Coming off of the main trail, just before the spur trail ends at the cliffs, there is a trail to the left. Keep following the trail until you see the second privy. About 60 yards past that is the spring and the small runoff stream. There are also some camping areas ~30 yards from the spring, behind the privies.

    How do you know the water is clean (free from chemical fertilizers and other pollutants)?

    I’m just noticing that there is a 2.5 hour hike time? Sounds like it would be hard to carry water back then.
