    I stopped by the Bond spring on my way back from central NH yesterday (2/13/2010). This spring tested out at 33 ppm. The water has good flavor but not nearly as powerful as the Cooper Spring.

  • Elizabeth

    Maybe I'm missing something, but what are you referring to when you say 33 ppm (33 ppm of some contaminant?)
    Thanks!

  • NewDawn

    Needn't be a contaminant although it could be. Simply the measured amount of mineral content (TDS = Total dissolved solids). Distilled would be around zero, my tap water is about 165, and “mineral water” must be over 400 or 450 I believe. The lowest TDS doesn't always make for the best water. Other factors include pH, how is it filtered, low temp, and a willingness to trust, etc. Hope this helps.

    what a great place to cool off

    Just left the this spring. It’s running very slowly, takes 15 minutes or more to fill a 5 gallon bottle. Looks like it may need repair.

    Bond Mtn Spring has just about stopped running. If you are a regular visitor of this spring, i would suggest going elsewhere. Water is running very slowly, and lacks the cold temperature it once had. Energetically I no longer feel good about drinking this water. Maine has suffered a major lack of rain this summer and it may be effecting the flow.

    The Bond Mountain is now just a trickle. It has been getting slower and slower and now this as of 10.28.10

    If you are interested in the GPS numbers of the Bond Spring there they are
    ( N 43″ 37″ 47.9 by W 070″ 53′ 46.8 ). If you are in the area and you are looking for another spring check out the Nightshade Spring in Parsonsfield roughtly 10 miles away, and it is flowing at a decent rate.

    Was just at Bond Spring (12-21-10) and it is flowing at a rapid clip. Filled a 5 gallon carboy in about 45 seconds.

    Hello all. I visited Bond Spring today; June 18, 2011 and was able to fill a quart jug in about two seconds.

     Hi, Google maps sets the parking and the pipe here:43.629791,-70.896176 Just there an hour ago, flowing well as it were, thanks

  • Bobdobbsubgenius

     however it jumped when I tried it in a new browser, thanks Googhell

  • Timothy Wing

    I visited the Spring in Mid-July and the water was flowing very fast. I had no problem fulling about ten gallons in a few minutes.

    I visited the spring on September 30, two days after Hurricane Irene rolled through and the spring was a trickle. Odd. I would have thought all that rain would have upped the flow quite a bit.

    I look forward to visiting the Spring again at the end of September. The drive should be spectacular.

    Bond Mountain Spring tends to run much more slowly during the Summer time for the last couple of years due to drought in Maine.  It is usually just the month of August that it runs the slowest, where it takes 5 minutes or more to fill a 6-Gallon Car Boy.  However, the rest of the year the spring is gushing with sweet, fresh spring water that hydrates unlike any other water!
