The Mountain Springs area has an interesting history that can still be seen if you look closely. It a previous iteration, there was a lake and ice house here that was built to harvest ice during the winter. However, as the ice industry died the need for a lake was diminished and eventually the lake was drained and the dam removed. These days Bowmans Creek flows through meadows as it has for most of its history.
