Do not enter this water
At 125°F this water is at or above the temperature that causes serious burns within seconds. Springs in this range are frequently vents, geysers, or boiling pools and are for viewing only.
What this number is, and is not
125°F is the maximum surface temperature measured at the vent during the USGS/NOAA thermal springs survey (1965–1980). It is not a current reading, and the temperature of any pool downstream of a vent is almost always lower.
This page also records nothing about access. Land ownership, legal entry, trail conditions, and whether a usable pool exists are all outside this dataset. Confirm with the managing agency before setting out.
