## About Hot Spring

An entry called only Hot Spring, in Clark County on the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, with Boulder City the nearest town and no distance between them on file. The record flags the water as hot but holds no measured temperature, so the heat is a label without a figure. A 2019 sample shows alkaline water heavy in dissolved solids. Access is open. The National Park Service owns the ground.

Count on hiking a bit over a mile in; the road you start from is unnamed. The spring sits low, around seven hundred feet, in desert that gets about six inches of rain and no snow at all. The annual mean is in the mid seventies. The land is National Park Service, part of the recreation area around Lake Mead. No campground is named.

The record suggests no season. The approach is a hike of a little over a mile. Access is open on Park Service land. No campground, nothing on fees. Nobody measured the temperature, only labeled it hot, and the 2019 chemistry shows heavily mineralized water, so expect heat and take it carefully.
