The Radium Hot Springs pools, located in the idyllic Kootenay National Park, have a long history dating back before anyone can remember, but First Nations people speak of the hot springs being a sacred place for them long before the white man arrived.
The first recorded visit to the hot springs was made in 1841 by Sir George Simpson, the governor of the Hudson’s Bay Company, who took a bath in a gravel pool just big enough for one person.
Today, the first visitors to the pools would not know them: a big hot pool surrounded by the Sinclair Canyon rock walls, a surprise cold plunge pool and a cool pool for swimming, as well as the on-site Pleiades Spa and Wellness, where qualified therapists will focus on those aching areas.
Thousands of tourists flock to this, Canada’s largest hot springs spa, which is also one of British Columbia’s top natural hot springs. It is colourless and odourless. There, they unwind their exhausted muscles and let the worries of the world float away, if only for a brief moment.
If you’re visiting the nearby Radium golf courses, skiing or snowboarding at Panorama Ski Resort, or simply driving through Kootenay National Park, soaking in Radium Hot Springs is a one-of-a-kind experience that should not be missed!
After soaking in the Radium Hot Springs baths, you’ll want to go there again and again.
Radium Hot Springs mineral water is odorless and transparent, making this hot springs ideal for a relaxing soak.
The Aquacourt at Radium Hot Springs is listed on the Canadian Register of Historic Places.
Radium’s hot springs formed when the earth’s crust fractured along a 2 km-deep fault. Surface water has seeped through this fissure since then, where it is heated by a hot rock near the earth’s center. The pressurized water is returned to the surface at a rate of 1,700 litres per minute, containing over 700 milligrams of minerals per litre.
By 1923, the Canadian government had purchased the hot springs and opened them to the public. Radium Hot Springs quickly became a popular tourist attraction, and many people have since benefited from the calming warmth of these geothermal pools.
The top five minerals discovered in Radium Hot Springs are:
-Sulphate 302 mg/l
-Calcium 135 mg/l
-Bicarbonate 100.8 mg/l
-Silica 31.8 mg/l
-Magnesium 31.6 mg/l
-Water temperature is kept between 37ºC and 40ºC (98ºF and 104ºF).

One of the more unique poutines I've had in Alberta called the Gaulvade from The Snack Bar by Street Avenue Food in Radium Hot Springs. This is a poutine with thick chunks of duck meat, a duck confit, peas and cheese cards. I honestly never considered using duck as a topping for poutine but it works really well and is super filling.
Portions sizes are huge so it's perfect lunch or snack for two people (or one if you are especially hungry)
Price = $22
Rating = 4/5

After chasing the #Aurora through the early morning hours - up to #Brisco and then #Spillimacheen and then into #KootenayNationalPark, on the way home I stopped on the hill above #Radium.
Just a hint of dawn's early light was breaking over the #Rockies and into the #ColumbiaValley. The #AuroraBorealis held its ground, not yet ready to call it a day.

A very special commission for very special clients! This beauty was inspired by their Happy Place outside of Radium Hot Springs, BC. I hope it makes them happy every time they see it 💚💙 I had a ton of fun planning and painting this piece - so many different waterways, mountains, hills, train tracks, trees, and even beaver dams!
We shipped this painting up to Alaska! Check out the photos and all of the steps I go through to make sure it arrived safely. And it even took a little cross country tour to Memphis! So funny! What the heck FedEx??

I'm excited to share a few teasers from Victoria and Albert's session this past week.
Like so many others this year this couple had to cancel their wedding celebration due to the pandemic. However that didn't mean we couldn't capture some incredible memories of their marriage.
Planning an adventure session in this epic location was such a great way to freeze those moments in time.
Alberta and Bc is currently in one of the most beautiful times a year as the winter wonderland dots the Western provinces.
I have plans for a BC trip coming up through the interior and possibly heading as far as Vancouver and the island if there are any couples that are interested in an intimate wedding or adventure session.
Huge thank you to Mark and the team at rockiesheli for taking us up to that incredibly beautiful location as well 😁
