## About Warm Spring

Several Nevada springs go by the bare name Warm Spring. This one belongs to Elko County, roughly a dozen miles from Spring Creek. The survey that recorded it wrote down warm and nothing more, so there is no measured temperature and no basis for calling it soakable. Who owns the ground was never noted.

You can see it from the car, give or take. Under fifty yards of walking, off a road nobody put a name to. Six thousand feet puts this in high sagebrush, and winter delivers well over four feet of snow in a typical year, with moderate moisture through the rest of it. The Powerhouse group picnic area, a little under nine miles out, is the nearest camping that turns up.

No month rankings exist for this spot, so let the snowfall decide. Expect drifted approaches through midwinter and mud when it melts. Public access is absent from the record, and so is any temperature reading, which makes the first visit a scouting trip. Ask about ownership in Spring Creek before you walk in.
