A comprehensive guide,to be sure.It lists all the springs by region,includes maps,and even tells you what temperature the water will be.Also covers some springs in Alaska and Washington.My first trip to Yellowstone years ago got me interested in the topic,so it's nice to have all the info in one book.I got mine used,but new copies can be had at MEC and many bookstores...

I picked up the first edition of this hotspring book at one of the book stores here on the N.Shore. Initially I tried to track the book down at Chapters/Indigo, but without luck. The dude at Chapters told me the book was out of print as they were working a second, more up to date, version.

Regardless, the book is definitely worth it. Anyone who is a hot spring afficinato won't be disapointed.
