You are right. The water is really cold. I couldn't resist seeing how cold the water was. Our group had to get used to working in the water since we were studying the carbon and water cycles. One spring that we measured was 0 degrees Celsius, the freezing point of water. There are some great pictures of us working in the water in the sections on South River and the Green Valley.
