I'm surprised to find a trough at Pine Spring, overflowing with water of decent quality; a few bees are living on the margins

I was expecting a dry, or semi-dry, spring here, not a developed one. I've brought enough water with me to this area, but it's nice to know that there's more in case of an emergency.
