    That spring is the best tasting water in the park and never stops running.
    Thanks for the info
    Any new on the spring at Tom Floyd. That's the one I was worried about the most.
    I know it's not in the park but close

    If you're asking in regards to waterfalls ,then inquire again closer to your leave date , water is flowing great now after recent rains but summer traditionally is dry.
    There will be reliable water sources at waysides , campgrounds and picnic areas if that's a concern .
    Getting lost is a way to find yourself.

    Fine now. A week from now may be different. A lot of heat this week, little rain.

    My wife and I stayed at Tom Floyd (just outside the north end of SNP) Monday night of last week. Spring was flowing well, no issues. Every spring on the map and in AWOL's AT Guide from Tom Floyd to Thornton Gap was there, with plenty of water. There were also some seasonal springs where none were indicated, so it's likely there will be plenty of water for your trip. [But it's hot out there. Damn hot!]
