Has anybody ever collected their own spring water and could give me some tips?

Look up your location to see the nearest fresh water spring near you, this could be a lifesaver, LITERALLY. plus who doesn't prefer free flowing mountain water to our mechanized, fluoridated, dead water?

Arctic Circle Spring - Big Bear, CA

One of the best parts of exploring California is happening upon natural springs, where one can bottle the crispest, cleanest, most delicious water straight from the earth mama herself. Daniel Vitalis' Find a Spring site is a great resource for locating springs during road-tripping adventures, but as I learned this past weekend, the new version of the site isn't very compatible with mobile browsers...so, if you're not carrying a laptop and/or don't have wi-fi access, the site isn't terribly useful/reliable. I'm therefore sharing this information about the Arctic Circle spring near Big Bear, CA in hopes it can be useful for anyone struggling with the Find a Spring site while on the road.

The Find a Spring site tipped us off to the presence of a spring near Big Bear, and gave us the name but we couldn't access any information beyond that. We managed to find a YouTube video taken at the spring that gave sketchy directions, and by luck we happened upon the spring, which was quite a happy moment. A continuous flow streams out of a metal pipe located behind a small dirt mound at a roadside turn-off on CA Highway 18.

To take advantage of this free wonder, bring some bottles/jugs on your next trip to Big Bear. The spigot is not super high, so if you have larger 3- or 5-gallon jugs, be sure to bring a smaller bottle to stick under the spout to transfer water into larger vessels.

To arrive at the spring from Big Bear, drive west on CA-18 out of town. After you pass the junction where CA-18 meets CA-38, go another 3.4 miles, at which point you will see a turn-off on the north side of the road. Pull in here, and you'll see what looks to be an ordinary dirt mound:

Go behind the mound, and voila! All the fresh water you could want!
