Fish Lake Hot Well


Fish Lake Hot Well, also known as Fish Lake Hot Spring is a geothermal hot spring.

Location

The spring is located in the Fish Lake Valley near the town of Dyer, Nevada. From the springs the White Mountains and Boundary Peak is visible.

History and description

In the 1880s ranchers drilling for oil discovered the hot well. It was later surrounded by a well casing. Later a six-foot square concrete soaking area was added surrounded by a cement deck and wooden benches. The soaking pool over-flows into a man-made swimming hole that has been stocked with large goldfish. This warm pond flows into a second and third pond. All of the soaking pools/ponds are different temperatures, ranging from 102°F to 85°F.

Water profile

The hot mineral water emerges from the ground at a rate of 50+ gallons per minute at 105°F.
