    There is the Gully Pipe and the Water Tree on Shortoff.
    Best to download maps off linvillegorge.net to find where they are marked. Also a good source to check and make sure they are flowing.

    You will also find mention of the pond on top of the mountain but it's pretty stagnant looking. I don't know if anyone that actually uses it as a water source.

    Lgmaps.org has a free Avenza maps GPS app that works great for finding water sources also
