## About Davis

Davis is a spring in Tooele County, roughly 26 miles from the town of Tooele, recorded at a temperature a shade under seventy degrees. That is barely warm, cooler than a swimming pool on a summer day. The water is fresh by desert standards, low in dissolved solids. Owner and access are blank.

A tenth of a mile separates it from an unnamed road. It sits higher than most springs in the region, above five thousand feet, and takes roughly three feet of snow over a winter. Simpson Springs Campground, twenty-one miles away, is the closest camping on the record.

The record lists winter as best, though for water this cool that guidance has limits. Treat it as a point of interest on a desert drive. Check who owns the ground. The sample is from 1964. Nothing on file mentions a fee or a structure at the spring. Tooele is the town for supplies and questions.
