There used to be springs and waterfalls in Colorado back in the 80s when I would go up there that had a common cup for hikers and travelers. A metal cup could be found hanging on a peg next to the waterfall or the artesian flow of the spring, and the water was crystal clear and safe to drink. I think you have to get up in the high country right next to the snowmelt to get that kind of water today. And the idea of a common cup for thirsty wanderers is a notion as silly as sitting on an airplane without a mask. Thanks for the note, Ed. We may be the last generation to even see the snow at the peaks of the Rockies.
