## About Radium Hot Springs

Radium Hot Springs is on BLM land in Grand County, about eleven miles from Kremmling, with public access open. No temperature is recorded, so how warm the water runs is an open question. The chemistry is recent, sampled in the fall of 2022, with a low dissolved solids figure. The Kremmling Field Office manages the ground.

From the road it is a short walk, about 440 feet. Public BLM land, open designation. Elevation sits a bit below seven thousand feet. Snow totals are heavy, a bit over seven feet, while the precipitation total is on the drier side. The Radium Recreation Area campground is one mile away.

Wikipedia puts the spring near the small town of Radium, halfway between Kremmling and State Bridge. The land is managed by the BLM's Kremmling Field Office. The USGS carries it as a monitored site with chemistry sampled in October 2022.

Best months are not given. Access is open and the walk is short. Camp at Radium Recreation Area a mile off. Without a temperature on record, treat the soak as unverified until you see it. The 2022 chemistry is the freshest thing on file for the site.
