If I were to try today, I'd get into the creek at a good spot off the road, walk upstream to the fork, hang a right and continue for maybe a half mile. You'll pass little warm trickles and smell suphur but they are misleading. Any strong whitish flow into the water coming from the bench above the right bank should be investigated. The spring I found was about 20 yards off the creek. Keep me posted here. It's a fun outing.

I was able to get my whole body into the spring and have a soak in 2003. With the relatively wet years we've had recently, it may have come back.

Water was warm and being used by fish/tadpoles as breeding grounds. Mud in bottom of creek was warm and there is another, more voluminous source of warm water cascading down into the creek at that location. I tried to follow it up but fallen trees/brush made it impassable.
