2022 Map of Miracle Hot Springs

About this map

The Kern River carves a deep path through the southern Sierra Nevada range in this 2022 survey, illustrating a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and geothermal activity. The thermal heritage of the region is anchored by Miracle Hot Springs and Delonegha Hot Springs, which sit along the river's winding course. To the south, the settlement of Havilah is situated near Havilah Canyon, while Keyesville occupies the northern reaches near the Keyesville Classic Trl. This area serves as a rugged intersection of the Greenhorn Mountains and the Piute Mountains, where the local terrain transitions from high peaks like Rankin Peak to secluded flats such as Lightners Flat. The complex road network, including Caliente Bodfish Rd and CA State Rte 178, traces the difficult topography of canyons like Jenny Lind Canyon and ridges such as Hobo Ridge.
