Unnamed Thermal Spring
This unnamed thermal spring emerges on BLM Mount Lewis Field Office land in Eureka County with temperature designated only as 'hot' rather than numerically measured, located 269.5 meters from the nearest road in terrain averaging 51.3°F annually.
The spring sits in Basin and Range topography at unrecorded elevation where sagebrush-covered slopes receive 8.9 inches of precipitation and 32.1 inches of snow annually. Federal designation as open public land subject to extractive use indicates the area supports grazing and potentially mineral activities. The short walk across open terrain provides views of surrounding mountain ranges typical of central Nevada's high desert basins.
Access requires a quarter-kilometer walk across BLM land with no trail. Verify current land use with the Mount Lewis Field Office before visiting. The lack of specific temperature data makes assessing bathing suitability impossible. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable visiting conditions given the elevation and exposure.
No name, temperature measurement, or historical documentation exists for this spring in available records. Its designation simply as 'hot' suggests it was noted during geothermal surveys but never developed or studied in detail.
