## About Mound Valley Warm Spring

Out past Soda Springs by about twenty-one miles, in Caribou County, Idaho, Mound Valley Warm Spring carries the warm label on the record without a measured temperature behind it, so do not take this as a place known to be soakable. Chemistry was never sampled, going by the record, and the land owner is unrecorded. Public access is likewise blank.

Roughly a tenth-mile off an unnamed road. Moderate elevation. The record has nothing on who manages the land. Winters here bring a fair amount of snow, more than eighty inches in an average year, and the precipitation total is middling. Maple Grove Campground is the nearest fixed point the record supplies, and the only one.

No best months are recorded. Camping, as noted, is Maple Grove Campground, about six miles off. The record holds no temperature to warn about, and the water's makeup is undescribed. Ownership is unknown here, so confirm that before you visit. With the record this sparse, check every detail locally, including the walk in from the road.
