182                  SPRINGS  OF  CALIFORNIA.
                             LEE  SODA  SPRING  (LAKE  31).
             There is  a small unimproved  carbonated spring on the Lee ranch
           in the canyon of Scott Creek about 4 miles in a direct line southwest
           of Lakeport.  Its water is cool  and moderately carbonated, but the
           place is rather inaccessible and is seldom visited.

              CARBONATED  SPRING  IN  CANYON  OF  SCOTT  CREEK  (LAKE  30).
             About 1^ miles west of  the Lee spring there is another carbonated
           spring in the canyon of Scott Creek,  also small in flow,  unimproved,
           and seldom visited.  Similar springs, which are known only to hunt-
           ers, probably rise at other places in this region.  The rock formations
           consist of the same series of sedimentary materials that was observed
           through  the  greater part of  the  coastal  ranges  in  the  north-central
           section of the State.
                           GLEN  ALPINE  SPRINGS  (LAKE  33).

             At  Glen  Alpine  Springs,  on  the  western  bank  of  Scott  Creek,  6
           miles southwest of Lakeport and beside the wagon road between that
           town  and  Hopland,  two small springs rise in bricked and cemented
           basins  about 4 yards apart.  A road house near the springs was for-
           merly kept open, but of late years the place has been deserted.  The
           water is moderately carbonated, but when visited in 1909  there was
           no  overflow.  Small  amounts  of  iron  have  been  deposited  on  the
           basin sides,  and at the creek edge  5  yards away a very hard deposit
           of lime carbonate a foot thick is exposed for a few yards.  The coun-
           try rock, which is well shown along the road near by, consists of the
           usual series of shale .and sandstone.
                              BYNUM  SPRING  (LAKE  34).

             Bynum Spring is situated  a mile south of Glen Alpine Springs, in
           a small ravine that is tributary to Scott Creek.  Its water rises from
           crushed sandstone near the edge of the stream channel, in a cemented
           pool about the size of a barrel.  When visited  in  1909  there was no
           overflow.  The  water was  strongly  carbonated,  and  slight  deposits
           of lime carbonate and iron had formed in the basin.  The water has
           been bottled at the  spring  and  marketed locally  as  a  table  water.
           The following analysis shows that it is essentially a secondary alkaline
           water.
