There's a small town in the UP called Norway --just east of Iron Mountain-- where we found a man carrying away 5 gallons of water from this spring. Back in 1903, Oliver Mining company had drilled a 1000-foot hole looking for iron ore. Instead, they found an artesian well from which we still enjoy the benefits today! It tastes delicious. While in Norway, be sure to stop at Swedish Passport for all types of Scandanavian gifts. We picked up a few items from Barb ;}
