The only water available to me is well water and I do prefer to fill up several Aquatainers at a local spring, but it's just water to me. There are seasons where the springs around me appear to "flunk" the drinking standards compared to treated, but not to a level where there's levels of ecoli, giardia, etc. Check for standing water around the site, research tests or get it tested yourself, spring water is fine, but obviously I wouldn't recommend anyone who's elderly or vulnerable to disease to drink from any random "spring." It's quite puzzling to see the rich paying out the ass for something those without municipal water, and the poor, have ritualized and get for free. I'm sure there's public access and tested springs only a quick drive from San Jose, so it is amusing.
