Springs
Drag the handle to compare the two views. The orange dot marks the spring, in a frame about three quarters of a mile wide.
Another unnamed thermal point, this one in Box Elder County, Utah, seven miles from Tremonton and entered on the record as Springs. Lukewarm water. No chemistry sample exists for it. Land ownership and access are both blank.
A few hundred feet off an unnamed road, the spring sits low on the valley floor at around 4,250 feet. The climate is moderately wet for northern Utah, with close to three feet of snow over winter.
Winter months are listed as best. Box Elder Campground is the nearest camping on record, about twenty miles away. No temperature history beyond the single reading and no water chemistry exist. Access is unknown, so do not walk in blind.
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 Springs.

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.
