JWR:
I came upon the Find A Spring web site the other day, thought it might be interesting.
Water being one of the most important assets in a great time of need, just maybe it is closer and better than your tap. Look up the closest natural spring to your location at Find A Spring. Bring all your water carrying gear and try it out to see how it tastes. Some of these springs mention sulphur or other tastes. You might find that it is the best water you have ever tried, best of all it is natural and typically free. In a TSHTF scenario, this could be life saving to everyone in the area and would be profitable and make it easy to take care of that most pressing of needs; clean, healthy water available from nature. If you are traveling to a safe place, it might be that you could plan your route to hit these springs along the way, saving you the hassle of carrying large amounts of water or the worry of not finding water. Best of luck, – Steve O.
