A SECOND SOURCE, A DIFFERENT PURPOSE
The geothermal record
DOGAMI records this feature as Breitenbush Hot Springs, reference MR-004d, in Marion County. We matched the named destination to this historical inventory for geographic context.
A geological spring location can differ from the entrance, bathing pool or parking area. Historical source-water readings do not describe today’s bathing temperature, so they are not presented as live pool measurements.
