Eagle Creek Hot Springs
A warm spring in Greenlee County, six miles or so from Morenci. The water sits at body temperature, so you could stay in it as long as you liked. That is about all the good news here. No owner is named, and nothing at all is said about access. There is no chemistry and no photograph, though the USGS inventory does list it.
The nearest road, unnamed on file, passes within a few hundred feet, so it is a short walk from wherever you park. It sits at a middling height in country where winters drop a little snow, rarely much, and around eleven inches of rain fall. On average the year runs in the mid sixties. Owl Creek Campground sits roughly nine or ten miles away.
The record favors winter, December through February. Reaching the spring takes a short walk from an unnamed road. Stay at Owl Creek Campground. The big unknowns are ownership and access, both blank, so find out who holds the ground before visiting. The water is warm and safe to touch, with no heat caution needed. No fee information is on file.
