N 50° 39.279 W 119° 13.272 Mt Ida HotSprings Wild [HTSP-MtIDA] For many years there have been rumours about hot springs at Mt. Ida, near Salmon Arm. There was even talk about a possible construction of a resort. Whether this mountain really was a volcano at some time is unclear. Regarding the possible existence of hot springs, there are a number of small ponds at Mt. Ida that have relatively warm water temperatures and it has been reported that some don't freeze over during winter. This cache is situated at one such pond. Access is via Shaw Road and there is a parking area under the big powerline at : N50° 39.208 W119° 13.061 GuyThaLizard ( Info from geocaching.com) July 18/07

N50 13.130 W117 33.107 Wilson Lake Warm Springs wild [HTSPWILLSONLK] - Be prepared for bushy hiking for this one. From Rosebery, a few kilometers north of New Denver on Highway 6, take the east Wilson creek road just south of the Rosebery park sign. Follow the excellent gravel road to Little Wilson Lake Forest Service campground., about 33 km from the highway. You can also reach this point by a rougher road from Nakusp; 6.3 km. south of Nakusp on Highway 6, take the Wilson Lake turnoff. Follow the rough road for about 18km to the campsite. Pick up a forest service map in Nakusp to navigate this complex of roads. The springs are on the south side of the valley, about 1 km east of Little Wilson Lake. The best approach might be to hike the overgrown road along the south side of Little Wilson Lake: This road starts about 2.2 km west of the recreation site. The springs seep from talus a short distance up a small side creek. Provincial government map 82K/SW shows the springs at UTM grid reference 606633 and an elevation of 950m. Water temperatures are about 35 C.” l.krisch July16 2008
