Sargent Estate Warm Spring is a warm seep near Gilroy in Santa Clara County. The name suggests private estate ground, and the record lists no owner and leaves access blank. The water is lukewarm, well below bath temperature. The closest road is four hundred odd feet away and unnamed in the file. Gilroy is under five miles off.
Low country at around four hundred feet. Winters are mild and wet. It never snows. A bit over a hundred yards on foot from the road. The file gives no land unit, and the outlet goes undescribed. No campground is listed nearby, and the county is the only geography the record attaches beyond the town.
Winter, per the record. Assume private property until someone tells you otherwise; the name points that way, and so does the fact that access is unrecorded. Warm water, nothing more. No campground within range and no fee are recorded. Gilroy is the town to ask in.

Heat flow measures the warmth working its way up through the ground from deep inside the earth. Where it runs high, rain and snowmelt that seep down through cracks in the rock come back up hot.
