The Source


Although difficult to see, the water is coming out just above the sandstone rock. This rock (to the lower left) is very soft and could likely be drilled into. My desire is to tamper as little as possible with the spring and the creekbed it feeds. A few days ago as I dug out the small pool the spring head feeds I found a salamander who rested in my hand for a bit, seemingly relaxed. I dug out the pool by hand and used the gravel and clay to build a small dam.
