## About Pakoon Springs

Out on the Arizona Strip, Pakoon Springs is a warm spring on Bureau of Land Management ground run from the Arizona Strip Field Office. The record lists it as open to the public. Water comes out tepid, warm enough to notice on a cold morning and nothing like a bath. The county given is Clark and the nearest town named is Bunkerville.

Low desert, well under three thousand feet, and dry. Eight inches of rain in a normal year and a trace of snow. Getting there means a walk of a tenth of a mile or so from the road, and the road itself goes unnamed in the record. This is public land with no designation beyond the Field Office, no fee noted, no facilities mentioned.

Winter is the season to aim for. The water was sampled in 1975 and came back slightly alkaline, with calcium and sodium showing along with sulfate and chloride; that reading is half a century old, so the chemistry and the temperature could both have drifted. Access is open. No campground is on record within reach.
