    Unable to locate this spring. Is there some sort of landmark nearby? Thanks!

  • shirley

    Found the spring. However, there’s a boil water advisory posted due to the presence of e-coli.

    Is it OK to drink?

    If you are adventursome I will tell you about a spring that nobody would know about and has got to be the best around. I know of this spring because it is on the old Kettle Valley rail line and the only way to get to it is hike up from Penticton or down from Chute lake along the old rail line.  When I worked on the CPR as a sectionman in the mid 70s we used to stop here on the speeder and fill a big CPR water bucket from this spring. That was our water for the day. We drank communaly if you can believe it! Cold clear excellent tasting. Big pipe coming out of the side of a rocky cut. Right smack in the middle of nowhere. I am going by memory now but it is about half way down the hill from Chute lake to the Adra tunnel maybe 2-4 miles. I know you can bike that part of the route, not sure if you can take a car down there. Hmmm got me thinking maybe I will go to chute lake and check it out!

    Yes it is fine. I have been drinking it for a couple months. It seeps right out of the mountain side. No pipes, nothing. Totally filtered by mother nature.
