Socorro Spring, Sedillo Spring
Two named springs, Socorro and Sedillo, recorded together as a single thermal point a couple of miles from Socorro. Soaking warm, low nineties, comfortable without any cooling. No access or owner on record. USGS ran the water in 1964 and got an alkaline result with chloride, sulfate, sodium, magnesium, calcium and a little iron.
Some 500 feet from a nameless road in the record, on the desert edge near Socorro at around 5,000 feet. Light snow, a dry year, warm summers. Land unit and owner are blank. The record does not say which of the two names belongs to which outlet, or if there are two outlets at all.
Water Canyon Campground is eleven miles out. Check access, because the spring is near town and likely on somebody's ground. Pick a winter month. The reading is sixty years old, and a spring this close to a town could have been altered since.
The water at Socorro Spring, Sedillo Spring is slightly alkaline (pH 7.9).
This campground is located at an elevation of 6,800 feet in the Magdalena Mountains.
