FindASpring Team Update:
As of 2025, Barnes Warm Springs is a secluded, undeveloped warm spring in the high desert. The spring is completely free, and the water temperature hovers around 90 degrees, and doesn’t seem to go any higher. This makes it ideal to visit in the warmer months. The Stikine River runs through the area, providing a nice backdrop during your time soaking.
