## About Little Warm Spring

Little Warm Spring sits on the Duckwater Reservation in Eureka County, forty-two miles from Eureka. At ninety degrees it is the warmest of the warm, right at the threshold of a soaking temperature. The land is tribal, and access is recorded as unknown, so this is a place to ask about before visiting. The USGS lists it and one photo is attached.

Duckwater Road passes about a thousand feet away. The spring is at about fifty-six hundred feet, where a typical winter lays down two feet of snow and the year's precipitation comes to nine inches. The land unit is the Duckwater Reservation.

It sits inside the Duckwater Reservation, which makes this tribal ground. The USGS keeps it on its list of thermal sites.

The recommended stretch is December into February. Because this is reservation land with no recorded public access, contact the reservation before going. If permission is granted, the water is comfortable for a soak on a cold day. The record lists no fee and no campground.
