I've found that most parks do not have heated water lines. Only a few times have we found them.
Just left a park yesterday with multiple spigots spewing water after they froze leaving no pressure and the city having a boil water advisory anyway. The park we moved to (450miles away) only has a boil water advisory.
So if the water goes out:
- If I have a full tank, I can continue for at least a few day.
- If I have an empty tank, I'm playing bottle water hunger games at the local walmart.
Of course, this presumes you have a means to keep the water tank from freezing.
