If you’ve ever watched or read David Wolfe, you know how good live spring water is for your body. I actually did my own test once, freezing ice cubes from RO water bought at the Glacier machine vs hand-collected spring water. Once the ice cubes were frozen I opened my freezer door to see that the spring water had actually sent stalagmites up to the roof of the freezer! That’s a sign of living water infused with hydrogen, and David Wolfe actually found ormus substances (including gold, I seem to remember, but don’t quote me) by spinning live spring water in a centrifuge.
I decided before launch that one of my hobbies this trip would be to locate springs and collect good water for drinking. Hopefully you won’t recognize me by the time four months is up!
I had looked on findaspring.com to see if there were any springs nearby my camp. Unfortunately, the closest one was about 4 hours away- at least of those that are logged on the website. Then I went for a hike in the mountains, with no thought of it for the time being. About two miles into the hike, I spied this lake being fed by a stream. When I followed the stream uphill, marked by beautiful primrose—it was a spring! This absolutely pure ice-cold water was bubbling up from under a 13,000 ft. mountain. I was at about 10,500 feet and all I had with me was a liter water bottle, so I dumped out the dead stuff and filled it at the source!
It was empty before I arrived back at camp. The next day, I hiked back up with my gallon jugs to fill one at a time. Because of my shoulder injury, I chose to hike in and out twice with one gallon at a time. It was worth it!
