## About Hot Springs

Hot Springs here is a USGS-listed thermal point in Lander County, a bit over thirty miles from Battle Mountain, with water that runs hot, past the point of comfortable soaking. A photo exists in the record, which is more than most basin springs can claim. The owner is not listed, nor is any access status, so the usual cautions about standing on somebody's land apply.

A road with no name anyone wrote down passes about a hundred feet from the source. The ground is below five thousand feet and dry, eleven inches of moisture annually, with snowfall that reaches two and a half feet through a typical winter. No land unit or designation is recorded.

Plan for midwinter if you want the trip to pay off; those are the months marked best on file. Snow can make the roads slow going in that stretch, though the source itself is roadside. Lingering contact with water this hot will burn. The record lists nothing on chemistry, fees, camping or access rights.
