Table Mountain (Spring)
Drag the handle to compare the two views. The orange dot marks the spring, in a frame about three quarters of a mile wide.
Table Mountain (Spring), as the record styles it, is a warm spring in Fresno County, sixteen miles from Coalinga. The water is in the upper eighties, warm to the hand and on the cool side for sitting in. Ownership is blank on file and access unconfirmed.
Under a hundred feet off a road that is not named on record, so roadside. About 2,500 feet up in dry country. Precipitation comes to ten inches annually, with no snow to speak of. The annual mean hovers around sixty.
Winter gets the nod on file. There is no campground within range on the record and no fee. Warm water with no burn risk, and in winter air it will feel warmer than the number suggests. The blank ownership entry means you should treat the ground as possibly private and ask around first.
Aircraft with laser scanners measured this ground to within inches. The scan strips out trees and buildings, leaving the bare shape of the land around Table Mountain (Spring).

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.
