## About Eagle Salt Works Spring

Eagle Salt Works Spring is a USGS thermal point in Lyon County, about 14 miles from Fernley, and little more than that on paper. The record calls it hot with no number behind the word, and there is no owner, no access status and no road name attached. What you have is a name and a location. Everything else, including how badly the water would burn you, is unmeasured.

A short walk of some five hundred yards separates it from the nearest road, which the record does not name. This is dry basin country at a middling height. Winter snow is light and the year as a whole gets little rain. Nothing is on file about the ground it sits on, and no photo has been attached.

No best months are listed. The temperature was never recorded as a figure, and hot in a USGS table can mean anything above warm, so approach the source as if it could burn you. Access is not on record. Find out who owns the land before you walk in.
