The OP has to make his own choices I guess, but I will offer an observation. For years on US129 from Cleveland Ga to Blairsville, Ga (very curvy and mountainous) there were a couple or three places where clear and cold spring water flowed out of a crack in the rock.

The GSMNP has signs posted cautioning visitors from drinking the ground water there for the same reason. If you intend to do this, at least add a few ounces of chlorine to the tank before you fill it.
