Since there's so much concern over water sources these days, here was my experience. I camped at Campbell Shelter 10-7-07. To find the water sources, walk along the trail that leads to the pig farm campsite to a gate along a fire road. To the left is a iron pipe that was dry, but was running well when I was up there in march. down to the right, a little hidden, is a spring box. The water there is a little yellowish in color, but turned clear up after filtering. It looks silty, but it was clear. The spring was about 2 feet deep based on our crude measurements with a stick. I would think that the water in this source should stand the test of the drought.

Hope this helps.
