Hot Springs On Adak Island
On remote Adak Island in the far western Aleutians, this 154°F spring rises just 435 feet from a road, making it surprisingly accessible despite extreme geographic isolation. The 114.1°F temperature differential dominates the 39.9°F ambient air.
The spring emerges at 328 feet elevation on this windswept Aleutian island. The landscape features the stark, treeless terrain characteristic of the far western islands, with volcanic geology and persistent fog. Annual precipitation of 47.7 inches and 85.4 inches of snow create a harsh maritime environment.
The spring requires a short walk from Pollitt Road, making it one of the Aleutians' most accessible thermal features. Access to Adak Island itself remains the primary challenge, requiring boat or plane travel to this extremely remote location. Expect fog, wind, and sudden weather changes year-round.
Adak Island's geothermal features reflect deep crustal processes in the Aleutian volcanic arc. The spring sits near Pollitt Road, a remnant of Cold War-era military infrastructure. These thermal waters represent some of Alaska's most remote geothermal expressions.
