Anybody plan on going to mount shasta anytime soon? This is a bit disturbing about the water you may be drinking up there http://www.youtube.com/user/TheCozmikTruth#p/u/25/w94Yqd8E0vU
The 10 minute mark mentions Shasta's metal water.Dec 3, 2010 at 7:32 pm #1670661That is just another report by garden-variety conspiracy theorists.

Dec 3, 2010 at 10:26 pm #1670715It's all part of getting back to nature. I really don't want to know what an alarmist would say about all of the water that I was drinking in YNP or from those lovely flowing wells along the Maah Daah Hey Trail!
Dec 4, 2010 at 1:37 am #1670733Uhh ohh…another one…
What would you rather drink?
Snow water off a mountain top or City Water out of a pipe?

It is not as fun for most backpackers.Now if you want to talk about professional wrestling, that is dead on the correct subject:-)
Dec 11, 2010 at 9:06 pm #1673409Don't know about Shasta but I would not be surprised at there being trace minerals and metals in the ground water. The wells we have tested around mt Diablo(further south) have been high in Boron. Many stories of the original settlers dying of the symptoms of heavy metal poisoning from drinking the water continuously
