Planning to hike this section this coming weekend. Anyone know of water source(s) near Street Gap? Trail guide (2009) doesn't list anything. Better to just go on to Low Gap?
Snow on Big Bald?
Appreciate any insights for this section.
Thanks!

From what I remember, there are a couple small side hill sources (seasonal) in between I26 and Street.
Very wet

There's a source about a mile in from I-26, another source (piped) at Low Gap campsite and a couple more trickles a mile or so north of there. No flowing water on the balds but there's a source at the shelter.
There should be plenty of water on that section as its been sopping wet the last week.
