## About Tom Spring

Nearly 60 miles from Ely, Tom Spring registers lukewarm on the USGS listing for White Pine County. Nothing on file names an owner or says whether the public may visit. A site number is attached. That is the extent of what is known, and no image accompanies it.

Around five hundred feet on foot from a road that the listing does not identify. Dry country with a light winter snowpack of about sixteen inches and six inches of precipitation across the year. Elevation sits mid-range. Land unit, designation: both empty.

January tops the record, with December and February close behind. Short walk in. With lukewarm water and unknown ownership, this is one to investigate before you make the long drive out from Ely. No chemistry, fee, photo or campground is listed, and the temperature has no date.
