## About Springs

Springs, plural, is the whole name: an entry two miles from Clayton in Contra Costa County with no temperature reading attached. It sits eighty-some feet from a road. No owner is on record and access has not been established, which for a spot this close to a town means you should assume it is somebody's property until you learn otherwise.

A bit over six hundred feet up, and right beside the road, which carries no name on file. Mild year-round by the averages, upper fifties, with seventeen inches of rain and zero snow.

No best season is on record and no temperature, so there is nothing to say about soaking. Nothing about a campground or a fee either. This one is a look-and-see entry. Settle the ownership question before you stop, and bring a thermometer if you want a number.
