## About Unnamed thermal spring

Hot water, pushing a little past what most people would call comfortable for a soak. This unnamed point sits in Pershing County on BLM ground. The Black Rock office administers it; access is listed open. Nobody ever pulled a water sample, though the USGS still gave the spot a number. Lovelock is the nearest city at sixty-five miles, so nothing about this is close.

The walk in is short, a hundred-odd yards from an unnamed road. Low basin elevation in dry country. Snow rarely amounts to more than a foot, and the year's precipitation is about seven inches. Nothing about camping in the record, and the ground is undesignated public land.

Best months are December through February on the record. Hot water: a careful hand test comes first, and a short soak is about all most people would want at this heat. No fee noted. Confirm access with the Black Rock Field Office before you drive out. There is no chemistry to go on, so the temperature is the only measurement on file.
