Hancock Spring is located along Hancock Flat Road (Forest Service Road 329). This natural spring has wood pole fencing around it to protect it from encroachment. There is a sluice that directs a portion of the water away from the spring. According to a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) report (
visit link) the discharge from this spring is 0.015 cfs, making it 6th magnitude spring.
To get to the spring, from the junction of UT routes 24 and 25, head north about 3-1/2 miles on UT 25. At this point (just past a radio tower on your right) there are a pair of dirt roads heading off to your left. Both are signed to Hancock Flat in 6 miles. Take the left (Forest Service Road 057), lower one (it starts by going downhill) for 6.1 miles to the flat. Turn left onto Forest Service Road 329, until you see the sign for Hancock Spring.
