## About Lost Cabin Spring

Lost Cabin Spring is a barely warm spring on Bureau of Land Management ground in Lake County, Oregon, a long way out from Lakeview, something over fifty miles. The water comes out cooler than body heat. Nobody is going to soak here, and the draw, if there is one, is that it sits right beside a road with public access listed as open.

This is high desert a little above four thousand feet, managed by the Lakeview Field Office. A road runs within a few steps of the spring, close enough to see it from the driver's seat, though the record does not say which road. Winters bring under three feet of snow in a typical year. The rest of the time it is dry country.

December through February are the months flagged as best, which fits a spring whose water is only lukewarm. No walking involved, since it is roadside. Fremont Point Cabin is the closest camping on file, about eleven miles off. The land is public and open, so the main thing to check is whether the road is passable after snow.
