Belfountain Beauty Spring, Belfountain, Ontario, Canada

Belfountain Beauty Spring, Belfountain, Ontario, Canada

Public Drinking Spring

Description
It has a plastic outflow, which pours into the creek. It seems to be in good shape, but I am not certain if someone is caring for it. It's a common area where people drink it, including me. ).
Mo Rosati: To get some readings, I returned to this location on November 12, 2009. All indicators suggest that this water source may also be an artesian one (though it might be naturally occurring rather than man-made as Ancaster Arestian well ). TDS 334 on the west was pH 7.53, temp 8.4C. TDS 350 on the east was pH 7.38, temperature 6.9C. Comparable to Ancaster TDS 190 pH 8.14. Belfountain water was tested for Total Coliform and E. Coli. It came back ZERO ( same as Ancaster source). Comparable to true natural springs eg. TDS 23 Temp: 6.7 C pH: 5.58
Nearest Address
Winston Churchill Blvd. Belfountain, Ontario, and Bush St.
Directions from the Nearest Address
After you have reached the intersection of Winston Churchill/Bush, turn NORTH (not South on the map). You will see the road descend a hill. You will see a guard rail at each end. The spring can be found on the west side and at the end the rail to the north. She'll be waiting for your arrival as you descend the hill. Enjoy!

Holy Well at Middleton Tyas, Middleton Tyas, North Yorkshire, England

Public Drinking Spring

Description
The well is located on the main street of this village, approximately one mile from Scotch Corner (A1). It has a large frontage, and water is constantly flowing down the street when I visited. According to what I've been told, it does so every time. Although the water is pleasant, it seems to be very high in ninerals. In an out-of print book on holy wells, the water is listed as a Holy' well.

Austin Hot Springs can be found approximately 60 miles away from Portland on Highway 224. Natural hot springs heated by volcanic activity are located in and around the Clackamas River, surrounded by the majestic Mt. Hood National Forest.
Depending on the season there may be several rock pools near the river that could be suitable for qualification.
Austin's 200+ degree heat waves can cause severe burns so be careful when you are soaking in the spring. There are safe places to soak. However, be careful not to get too hot. You can use a waterproof digital thermometer to locate burst spots.
Continue 30 miles southeast from Estacada on HWY 224. This becomes the Clackamas River Road. The pools can be found approximately 4 miles east at River Ford Campground. They are situated along the far side Clackamas River.
