Liard Hot Springs - British Columbia

In British Columbia Canada is one of the earths made wonderful Hot Springs.  The Hot Springs are basically pools but it is natural made and can get up to 124 degrees Fahrenheit.  It does not have one single heater and it gets its heat from the earth’s magma heating the water that comes into the spring.  (It felt amazing!)  In fact one part of the hot spring is boiling water (See Picture).  Since one part of the spring is boiling then it has to have some way of cooling it down.  It has another spring that comes in to the spring from a waterfall out of the mountain.  They create the temperature you feel!  If you go to the side with the falls and the boiling water when you enter and come out you have to stir the water or you will burn.  There is a spot for kids that is warm so that he they don’t get too hot!
