Along a 500m stretch of Elwyn Creek’s headwaters, there are about ten small hot and warm springs.
The Springs are easy to find and are close to the Timberline. On the southwest side of Elwyn Creek, extensive orange tufa deposits host a series of warm ponds, with a few Warm Springs on the other side.
The water is odourless and clear. It has a high concentration of dissolved minerals, particularly bicarbonate, sodium, and calcium.
A small vent halfway between the creek and the farthest pool produces the hottest water, which is 36 degrees Celsius. This is a meadowed area on Mount Edziza’s northwest flank.The headwaters of Elwyn Creek include around 10 tiny hot and warm springs across a 0.5km span.
The Springs are beside the Timberline and are simple to discover. Numerous warm ponds are located on the southwest bank of Elwyn Creek among large orange tufa deposits, with a few Warm Springs on the opposite side.
The water is very clear and odourless. It contains a lot of dissolved minerals, including calcium, sodium, and bicarbonate.
The hottest water, which has a temperature of 36 degrees Celsius, comes from a tiny vent located midway between the stream and the furthest pool. On the northwest side of Mount Edziza, there is a meadow here.
