The springs in Bandera are what I would call "legacy springs". The ran down about 100 yards of a rock gradient and went into a very large sinkhole. If you'd like to see it, just let me know and I'll take you out there.
I've seen this type of destruction before. Specifically at the Flying-L Ranch in Bandera, TX. They dug a culvert and the source of natural springs there to build a road. When the fill was returned, the springs never did. That was over two years ago and it's still dry.
Thanks for your comments Rob. After destroying hundreds of trees at the Seguin Outdoor Learning Center, the city of Seguin now claims it wants to take steps to protect trees under its juirdiction. Forrest

The natural springs are very delicate indeed.
