## About Howard Holiday

Howard Holiday is a warm spring four miles from Klamath Falls in Klamath County, tracked by USGS. The water is tepid, warmer than a lake in summer and nothing like a hot soak. The record has no owner or access status, so permission to visit is unclear. Unphotographed, as far as the record goes.

Green Springs Drive is about five hundred feet off, a short walk. Slightly above four thousand feet, and winters stack up four and a half feet or so of snow, with moderate rain across the year. No land unit shows up. Klamath Falls is the supply point, and at four miles it is the closest town to any spring in this part of the county that the record lists.

The cold months are where the record puts the best visits. Topsy Campground is listed about twelve miles away. Winter visiting here means snow likely on Green Springs Drive. Nothing about access is on file, and being this near town, look for posting. No temperature caution needed.
