Geyser Ranch Springs
Forty-four miles out of Ely, Geyser Ranch Springs is a tepid spring in White Pine County, a long way from anywhere. Tepid here means the water would feel about like a cool bath. No owner is named for the land and there is no word on public access, so assume it could be private until you learn otherwise.
Roadside: some 200 feet from a track with no name on file. The elevation is upland, and winters here drop a fair amount of snow, with a dry year otherwise. A 1985 sample tested close to neutral. No campground is listed, no photo, no second name. The USGS number and the 1985 sample are what the record holds beyond the name.
The listed months are the winter ones. Access is blank, so find the owner before you go. The water is tepid at best and the reading dates from a decades old survey, so the spring may feel different now. Nothing about a fee is recorded.
The water at Geyser Ranch Springs is slightly alkaline (pH 7.5).
Geyser Ranch Springs sits at 5,950 feet above sea level, way above the mile-high mark. You may not feel the altitude strongly, but hot water still dehydrates you faster at elevation. UV is about 24% stronger than at sea level, so bring sunscreen and drink more water than you normally would.
