## About Browns Springs

Browns Springs runs warm about ten miles from Dillon in Beaverhead County. Warm is generous; the water is tepid, the temperature of a pool left in the shade. The record has no owner and no access status, and it has no photo. What it does have is a roadside location, forty feet from the road, so at least nobody needs to hunt for it.

It lies at moderate elevation in the dry southwest of the state, where winter snowfall is moderate and rain is scarce. The road it sits beside goes unnamed on the record. Whoever owns the ground has not been identified.

Henneberry House is the closest camp listed, under three miles away. The record picks the dead of winter as the best months, and snow here is light enough that the road may stay passable, though nobody has confirmed that. Chemistry is absent and so is a survey date. Assume private land until you know otherwise and ask before stepping off the road.
