Might be worth a try. Most bottled drinking water is from a municipal supply, despite how fancy they try to make it sound.
This thread reminded me of a conversation I had with my 17 year old son last week. He went on a boy scout rappelling trip to Zion last summer and had the time of his life. We were looking at the pictures, and he pointed out a spring I hadn't seen before. He said they drank from that spring and it was the best-tasting water he had ever had. I was kinda jealous!
