Description

You will see a PVC pipe coming out of a rock. There is a small area to park your car, (not a paved parking lot), by the side of the road by the spring. The spring is right by the road and can be seen from the road. There are no signs.

Credit for doing the research to find this spring goes to Robb Yurisko, who found a lead, but wasn’t sure if the spring was still in existence. My partner and I followed his directions and found that it is still there, and took temperature and TDS readings and entered it here. The water feels like the cleanest purest water I’ve ever had.

Photos and blog post about finding the spring will be available on The Health Exhibitionist Blog… http://laurenmichellekinsey.com

    My husband and I live in Los Angeles, but were married at Ash Cave. We’re going back this fall and are renting a cabin with a bunch of friends. I will certainly be making a special excursion to this spring!

    There’s another spring that I grew up drinking from in the Newark, Ohio area. If I can find it again in October, I’ll be sure to submit it to the site.

    Oh – and if anyone ever makes their way to Northern California, be sure to check out Wilbur Hot Springs. It’s amazing, and Daniel’s videos about it are very informative.

    We filled up 5 jugs at this spring on Saturday. It was running kind of slow and took about 45 minutes to get 25 gallons. But it was a beautiful day and we enjoyed the view while waiting. A local stopped by and said the spring was running slower than usual, but the water is well worth the wait! It’s Delicious!! So much better than the processed, dead “store-bought” water we’ve been drinking. We will be making the trip at least once a month!

    …have been getting 45 gallons there every 6 weeks for over 10 years. Unsurpasable. Fill rate varies between 50 sec per gallon to 2 minutes per gallon. Purity is evidenced by the occasional salamander egg that will hitch a ride in a 5 gal bottle in the spring and show up as a hatched wriggler. I’ve had this happen 3-4 different times. They are to spring water what the canary was to coal mines. ie They are a GOOD thing.

    Filled up my jugs twice at this spring while on vacation in the area. Great water. Talked to a local nurse who was also filling up, and she highly recommended this spring as being the purest in the area.
    You can see the water coming out of the rock, it is then collected into a PVC pipe, and bottles are easy to fill. Flow was quite good, under a minute per gallon.

    We have been getting our drinking water at Hawk Hill spring since early this year.  Tastes delicious!  And with the low amount of TDS, we feel pretty confident that the water is pure.  However – i’ve just ordered a full spectrum Water Contaminant test kit from http://www.watertestamerica.com and will post the results here when I receive them!  The test i’ve ordered also shows any contamination from fracking!

  • Shelle

    Just got the water test back – PH=6.21, Hardness=57 mg/L Total Dissolved Solids=30.9 mg/L, no heavy metals, no PCB’s, DDE, DDT, no Pesticides, no VOC’s.  One of the few things this test doesn’t include is a test for Glyphosate, Round-up, which requires a separate, expensive, test.  i guess we’ll take our chances on that for now!
