## About Saratoga Hot Springs

Saratoga Hot Springs is the town's own hot spring, in Carbon County, Wyoming, less than half a mile from the center of Saratoga. The land record lists the city as owner and the parcel as Pool and Hot Springs. Water on record is hot, well above soaking temperature at the source. Public, open, and steps from the road.

This one is in town. The record puts it under two hundred feet from a road, though it does not say which. Elevation just under 6,800 feet, high plains country. Dry by the precipitation total on file, with a snow season around five and a half feet and an annual average in the low forties, mild for Wyoming. City-owned, with an LREC designation attached.

The source temperature on record is hot enough to burn, so look for where the water has cooled before getting in. The record favors December through February, and with modest snowfall that is workable. Access is roadside, in town. The nearest camp on record is the Brush Creek Work Center barrack site, about seventeen miles out. No fee on file, and no bath type listed, so confirm what facilities exist.
