A visit to Clear Creek Hot Springs is as much about the drive as it is about the hot springs. The springs are accessible via a relatively short (54km) drive along the Harrison East and Clear Creek Forest Service Roads. The springs are a nice surprise at the end of a fun mountain drive. They are surrounded by an icy stream of snowmelt. Running between the two is a great way to cool off in the wilderness!
Ruth Larsen, wife of Henry Larsen, who made a fortune in logging, was the first to place tubs here in the 1950s. He was reportedly the third richest guy in British Columbia at the time. His wife worked as a gold prospector and was dubbed a “old hippie” by some (although others claimed she was “a bit crazy”). She constructed a home near the springs, on the first road up here, and a long-time visitor told us that her grave is someplace near the tubs in the bush. The first baths, large ancient wooden wine barrels fed by hoses cemented into the thermal springs in the rocks, were installed by Ruth. More people came to visit these springs after the road was restored by logging firms and after Ruth died, and they bought new tubs.
The cabin is no longer standing, but one of the original wooden tubs remains. There are two hot tub forms and one bathtub tucked in the rocks as well.
You’ll want to have a 4×4 (Recommended however many people make it in 2 wheel drive) to get to this destination, as there are many potholes, ruts, rocks, and during the rainy season, and (over)abundance of puddles and mud.
To get there: (Be cautious as there are often logging trucks traveling along with East Harrison)
Take a drive up the East Harrison Forest Service Road until you reach Clear Creek Forest Service Road.
Approximately 11 km up Clear Creek FSR, you will arrive at Clear Creek Hot Springs on your right.
Walk along a short pathway made of logs, and you’ll find 3 hot tubs nestled in a beautiful old-growth forest.
The hot tubs and setup are more “rustic” than some of the other hot springs; and because it is one of the more accessible hot springs, it’s rare to have the area to yourself. But it’s still a great spot to sit back and soak while taking in the delightful forest and mountain views.
Trail map here:
Points of Interest: The drive along Harrison Lake provides spectacular views all day, but there are a few highlights worth mentioning.

Soakers Report! For #ClearCreekHotSprings
Made by Danielle Hebert
Made it up today in a lifted Taco with lockers on 34s and it was a challenge. Last 10km ice and snow complete with mudslides and plenty of downed trees. Passable with 4 wheel experience. Don't bring mom's SUV lol

Ascent of “Hornet Peak” (P900m) in East Harrison area with sasquatchandwolf and matteosig . This peak had caught my attention for a while but the status had been mysterious with no beta whatsoever on the internet, even though it boasts almost 1000m prominence.. Took Matt’s proposed route via Clear Creek and North Ridge and took advantage of todays firm conditions for fast travel. As the day unfolded it started to feel like Robertson Peak last year when we traveled into a valley that had seen extremely rare human activities in the past, if any.. Over 32 km distance, in just over 10 hours time. Long ass drive on FSR including some snowy kms. Took our fat bikes to facilitate a little bit of the approach. Stopped in the Hotsprings for about half an hour on the return, which was really nice. Woke up at 3 am and back home after 8pm.

Rockwell Dr update. Metric Civil showed up to check on culverts and good thing the did. Crew now on site mitigating culvert issues. Emil Anderson has shown up to. Trout Creek bridge getting hammered again. We'll see how it fairs today. No trees in debris flow so that's a plus.
Regarding recent comments about why these culverts and sizing. According to Metric this morning, these were the only ones that could be sourced at the moment. And checking all the way to Calgary! Understandable I guess with what's been going on. Long term plans are for a full complete bridge, or so the rumor goes.
