Utah Fish And Game Dept
Drag the handle to compare the two views. The orange dot marks the spring, in a frame about three quarters of a mile wide.
This warm spring in Tooele County is recorded under the name Utah Fish And Game Dept, an agency label standing in for a place name. It lies about eleven miles from Grantsville on state trust land in the I-80 Block, with access listed open. The water is tepid. The USGS counts it as a thermal site.
An unnamed road comes within two hundred feet, which makes the approach trivial. The land is state trust ground under owner code SLB. Its designation is SRMA. The site sits low on a valley floor, a bit over four thousand feet up. Winters bring around two feet of snow. The year runs on the dry side.
Come in the winter months if you follow the record. Lower Narrows Campground is nearly seventeen miles away. There is no water sample and no date on the temperature. Access is open on the record; confirm with the trust lands office since that is who manages the ground.
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 Utah Fish And Game Dept.

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.
