## About Silverpeak Hot Spring

Out in Esmeralda County on BLM land run from the Tonopah Field Office, Silverpeak Hot Spring flows hot, above the range where you would ease into it without letting it cool. Goldfield is the nearest town, around twenty-two miles. Access is open. There is a photo on file. No water chemistry has been recorded and no elevation either, which leaves the fact table thinner than usual.

A road comes within about ninety yards of the spring. Roadside, in other words. This is dry country, six inches of precipitation a year and a token amount of snow, so the drive in should be clear for most months. Public land, no special designation. No road name and no campground are given, which is normal for this corner of Nevada.

Winter gets the nod on file. With almost no snow, the appeal of the cold months is hot water in cold air, and the roads should stay open. Water at this heat hurts, so check it with a hand before anything more. Open access on public land. Nothing is listed for camping nearby, so Goldfield is your base.
