About this list
Hot-spring location data comes from the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System (GNIS), filtered to thermal features by name pattern (hot spring, warm spring, geyser, boiling spring, thermal). GNIS catalogs the geographic feature; access status, ownership, and current conditions come from the relevant land manager. See our methodology page for full sourcing.
