The Laguna Pueblo Seeps are a set of warm seeps on Laguna Pueblo land in Valencia County, with Los Chavez the nearest listed place and close by. The water is in the low eighties, below what most people would soak in. Tribal land, access unknown. No water chemistry exists in the record, so the temperature is the only measurement on file.

Location

About six tenths of a mile from the nearest road, on the pueblo's ground at around 5,400 feet. Mid elevation, modest snow, a dry year. The word seeps in the name is the only hint at form, and the record does not describe it further. Laguna Pueblo holds the land.

Contact Laguna Pueblo about access before planning anything. There is no analysis on file, and no sample date, so the temperature figure is all you have to go on and its age is unknown. No campground listed. December through February is the season the record favor. Los Chavez sits right there, so this is hardly remote.
