## About Woodhouse Spring

Woodhouse Spring is a second tepid BLM spring in the Beaver County high country outside Milford, around twelve miles from town. Like Willow Spring in the same Field Office, it comes up warm to the touch and no more. Access is open. The water carries a moderate mineral load and a photo is on file.

It takes a walk of a bit under a third of a mile from an unnamed road to reach it. Cedar City Field Office land, public, at an elevation where winter snow is real without being deep and the year as a whole stays dry. Hanging Rock Campground is the nearest camping on record, though it is better than twenty miles away.

Plan on December through February, the months the record rates highest. There is no fee on file. Temperature and chemistry both come from a single survey in September 1963, the only reading anyone has, so treat the warmth as unconfirmed until you put a hand in. Open public land with no facilities noted.
