## About Hot Spring

An unnamed thermal point about 7 or 8 miles out of Yerington in Lyon County, recorded as Hot Spring. It is labeled hot with no number given, so no temperature is known. Nothing is recorded about the land or access. The USGS did not attach a site number either, so the location itself is the most solid fact here.

A few hundred feet separate the spring from the nearest road, and the record never names that road, so count on a short walk. Basin country at middling height, dry, with two feet of snow in a typical winter. There is no water chemistry in the record and no campground, and no best season is listed either.

No best months are recorded. The word hot with no figure behind it means you approach the source as though it could scald. Access is unknown, so find the owner. With no photo and no USGS site, verify that the spring is there before planning around it.
