Iskut River Hot-Springs N57 04.965 W130 21.624

The Iskut River Hotsprings are exactly at:

57.082757°, -130.360393°
N57 04.965 W130 21.624

Located 14km NW of Bob Quinn Lake, British Columbia

We paddled that section of river this summer (Class V above the hot springs). I'm not sure what the preferred access is. It looks like there is a flagged heli-pad on one of the gravel islands a few hundred metres downstream. The Iskut is fast and cold and I wouldn't want to swim across and a ford would not be feasible Perhaps access is best in winter?

As for the springs themselves at most water levels there isn't much. There are some rock formations and a shallow (4 inches) extremely hot (too hot) pool in the rock formations. Apparently at low water you can dig out a pool just below the rock formations and mix in some river water. When we were there the river was too high (September).

Cheers.
