spring, draw only border

El Polin spring water bubbles from a rock wall at the head of this riparian valley. The spring provided a source of fresh water for the Spanish Presidio, and Spanish and Mexican families built their homes in this sheltered valley. Later, in 1898, the First Tennessee Volunteer Infantry Regiment camped here during the Spanish-American War. Today, you can picnic in the bucolic meadows near the spring or explore the surrounding forest and grasslands.
