New River White Sulphur Springs
New River White Sulphur Springs is a warm spring in Giles County, Virginia, about two and a half miles from Pembroke. Mid eighties water, warm enough to sit in on a cool day without shivering. The name points to sulfur, and no sample on file confirms or denies it. The record has no owner and no access status. A photograph is attached.
Village Street runs within about two hundred feet of the source, so this is a roadside spot, and the street name suggests a settlement close by. The ground is around eighteen hundred feet. Rain and snow together come to about forty inches a year, with the snow share under twenty inches. No campground is listed within range, and No land is on record.
December through February are the rated months. Roadside. There is no campground on record near here. Ownership is not listed, so treat the ground as private until you know otherwise. The sulfur in the name is unconfirmed by any sample, and there is no USGS station.

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.
