Life giving water

In 1934 some of the CCC boys built this water trough at Lou's Spring back when sheep or cattle used to graze some of this area. This is the only life giving water around and in recent decades is little visited. The spring is barely dripping, but the water troughs below store the good water. Other than this spring, there are no other water sources for many miles in any direction. We set up our basecamp here for our four days of exploration. See the Trip Report for details.
