The Source, which has been documented since 1957, is located at 1200 feet ASL in Chilliwack, British Columbia. It is protected from pollution by extensive foliage cover and flows from a fault in the mountain bedrock. The water comes out of the aquifer by a 260ft "gravity feed" drop which creates it’s own flow at 4 million gallons per day. The quality of the water is not affected in any way, by run off water from the local area. The relatively constant flow also suggests a constant hydraulic head within the subsurface. |
