Can you see the hot tub?  You walk down into the gazebo and there is hot tub that could seat
at least 8.  Being early off season, we were the only two people staying.

This man made pool collect water from the stream/hotspring that flows into it.  The temperature isn't
as hot as (My book says 32° to 69°), and pool is much more frequented.

The hot spring water flows though garden hoses to this tub.  It was good for an immediate
bath by our fearless captain - Jan!

Mike came with a scrub brush and a bucket from the boat.
Once we drained the tub we started scrubbing and scrubbing.

It's the end of the day, we had a good soak.

The hot spring water is much warmer than the surrounding water so it
makes a nice fog bank as it run towards the bay.

After we drained and cleaned the pool we let it fill up again.
It looks pretty nice - too bad it was too hot!

This slimy stuff lives in the warmer water that comes from the spring.
This picture is similar to on

We needed to get the dirty water out of the tub so we could replace it with clean.  Thankfully there is a still
working valve at the bottom to drain the pool.

The hot spring was mostly turned off and was running in slowly so it was on luke warm.
Jaques thought it was a nice temperature so he went in for a little soak.  You can
see the clay pipe the water flows though to get to the pool.  The remains
of the old pier are visible in the background.

The hotspring flows from the forest over a waterfall and then down several pools until it
reaches the ocean.  The further from the source the cooler the water gets.  When we arrived
there was only space at the end and we worked our way up the pools to the top.

I imagine this must be the most scenic view from a hotspring in
pretty much all of Canada.

The steam mixed with fog and rain - but the smell of sulfur
told us we were in the right place.

Hot water bubbling out of the ground is always cool - the spring is
bubbling hot and fast.
