Crystal Spring is a spring in northern Beaver County, Utah, United States.[1]

Description

[edit]

The spring is located on the west face of the San Francisco Mountains, on the northern slope of Frisco Peak and is about 1 mile (1.6 km) north-northwest of the peak. The water produced by the spring flows west-northwest down into the Wah Wah Valley, where is seeps into the ground before reaching any stream.[2]

The spring was so named on account of its crystal clear water.[3]
