“Wilson Lake Warm Springs (undeveloped) N50 13.130 W117 33.107
Be prepared for bushy hiking for this one. From Rosebery, a few kilometers north of New Denver on
Highway 6, take the east Wilson creek road just south of the Rosebery park sign. Follow the excellent
gravel road to Little Wilson Lake Forest Service campground., about 33 km from the highway. You can
also reach this point by a rougher road from Nakusp; 6.3 km. south of Nakusp on Highway 6, take the
Wilson Lake turnoff. Follow the rough road for about 18km to the campsite. Pick up a forest service
map in Nakusp to navigate this complex of roads. The springs are on the south side of the valley, about 1
km east of Little Wilson Lake. The best approach might be to hike the overgrown road along the south
side of Little Wilson Lake: This road starts about 2.2 km west of the recreation site. The springs seep
from talus a short distance up a small side creek. Provincial government map 82K/SW shows the springs
at UTM grid reference 606633 and an elevation of 950m. Water temperatures are about 35 C.”
