Abstract
Temperature-depth profiles in borehole GC-1, northwestern Utah, were m easured in 1978, 1990, and 1992. Borehole temperatures below 80 m dept h are highly reproducible over the 14 year period indicating long term thermal stability. A slowly changing temperature field above, 80 m de pth has similiar characteristics to synthetic temperature profiles com puted from a 100 year record of air temperature changes at Park Valley weather station 50 km northeast of the borehole site.
