This natural spring can be found at a roadside pull-off between Hopwood and Chalkhill, Pennsylvania. A pipe can be seen coming down the side of the hill for a distance of about 10 feet. Then it runs along the ground and terminates at a large holding tank. Pictures of the nearby geocache show the flow varies. It appears during wetter times, the water coming out of the end of the pipe is very forceful.
