Went to the spring and tested the water. This spring is appeared to be the worst quality spring I have been to. The total dissolved solids was 107 and above, the water was relatively warm 55 degrees, and there was a white film collecting in the small catchments. If you are in the dallas area, I recommend the frankston/cuney with a total dissolved solids in the low twenties.

Thanks for the info. My son lives near Tyler and just bottled me some water from Frankston-Cuney. It tastes wonderful!!! I had some ph papers and tested it at 6.7 but not sure how accurate that is. I live in Austin and can't find anything closer, can you?

well the gorman spring, new braunfels and san marcos spring are close to you…if you are in austin. My friend and I are either going to journey down to new braunfels tomorrow to check out the scoop on this one, or maybe even go to the pike spring in arkansas, which is about the same distance for me as the ones near you… I will share my discoveries where ever we go..

Please keep me updated! I will check into the springs that you mentioned but I don't think that there is a way to collect the water, I believe it bubbles up and into a pool that recieves direct sunlight, as does the Comal in New Braunfels. Oh I hope that I am wrong!

yeah I went here too, and turned away not drinking the water. Frankston/cuney is the best I have found in the Dallas vicinity.
