Waconda Spring
Waconda Spring, or Great Spirit Spring, was a natural artesian spring located in Mitchell County, near the towns of Glen Elder and Cawker City in the U.S. state of Kansas. It was a sacred site for Native American tribes of the Great Plains and, for a time, became the site of a health spa for American settlers. With the completion of the Glen Elder Dam in 1968, the mineral spring disappeared beneath the waters of Waconda Reservoir.
==Description==
Waconda Spring was situated on the bank of the Solomon River, below the North and South Forks of the river.〔
The water flowing from the spring had deposited a large cone of travertine around it.〔Buchanan, Rex, Robert Sawin, and Wayne Lebsack (2000). ("Water of the Most Excellent Kind: Historic Springs in Kansas". ) ''Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains''. pp. 128-41. Retrieved 2010-09-18.〕
In 1866, surveyor David E. Ballard described it:
The Spring itself is a natural curiousity, it being located on the summit of a cone shaped limestone rock. The rock is circular, about 200 feet in diameter at the base and about 30 feet high, upon the summit of this, rests the spring, the basin being circular and about 30 feet in diameter, its outlet is a trough apparently formed by the action of the water upon the rock. The water in the spring is about 20 feet deep and exceedingly strong with salt...〔("Two Cultures: The Kaws". ) (Kaw Mission State Historic Site. ) Retrieved 2010-09-18.〕
