Water profile
Soothing — neither hot nor cold, perfect balance.
Loaded with major ions — the essential minerals (Ca, Mg).
Soft water — natural, classic buoyancy.
In the sparsely populated high desert of Nevada, where basin-and-range geology creates a natural plumbing system of geothermal springs spread across vast distances, Dyke Hot Spring emerges in a setting of austere, elemental beauty. Nevada has more hot springs per square mile than almost any other US state, and this natural source belongs to that tradition of roadless, undeveloped desert soaking. The water surfaces at 35°C, warm against the cool desert air, with a bicarbonate mineral profile that delivers a clean, lightly softening quality. The neutral pH of 7 is perfectly balanced, producing a gentle soak with no harsh mineral edge. There are no facilities here — just the spring, the desert, and the horizon, attracting the self-sufficient traveller who navigates by GPS coordinates and carries their own provisions.
