Hi,
If you're hiking in Yellowstone's backcountry, and you need water, if you get water out of a creek that geysers and hot springs flow into, is it ok to use? I would filter or treat it, but do the thermal features add anything to the water that we shouldn't ingest? (Again, I'm not talking about grabbing water out of a hot spring.) Thanks for any information.
