Lefevre
Drag the handle to compare the two views. The orange dot marks the spring, in a frame about three quarters of a mile wide.
Lefevre is a soaking-warm spring on BLM ground in Garfield County, about eight miles from Panguitch. Public access is open. The water sits right at body temperature, warm enough to enjoy on a cold day. No water chemistry has been recorded, so the temperature is the only measurement.
A bit over a quarter mile on foot from the road, on land the Kanab Field Office manages. Elevation is high, about 6,500 feet. Winters drop around four feet of snow and the area is dry otherwise. The listing does not name the road.
The cold months are flagged as best, with snow to reckon with. White Bridge campground is about sixteen miles off. No fee is recorded. Test the water yourself before getting in; the reading on file has no date attached. There is no photo yet.
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 Lefevre.

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.

Lefevre sits at 6,460 feet above sea level, way above the mile-high mark. You may not feel the altitude strongly, but hot water still dehydrates you faster at elevation. UV is about 26% stronger than at sea level, so bring sunscreen and drink more water than you normally would.
