## About Annie Spring

Annie Spring is a warm spring inside Crater Lake National Park, in Jackson County, Oregon, about 38 miles from Shady Cove. The water runs tepid. You would not want a bath in it. It sits on National Park Service land with access listed as open, and the USGS keeps a gauging station on it, which tells you the flow is steady enough to be worth measuring.

Munson Valley Road passes within a couple hundred yards, so the walk in is short. The park sits in high country, and this is some of the snowiest ground in the state, with winters that pile up well over two hundred inches. Wet in the other seasons too. The nearest campground on file is the Imnaha Guard Station, around fourteen miles off.

The USGS maintains a stream gauge on Annie Spring and records its discharge, a little under two cubic feet per second at last reading. That gauge is the most documented thing about the spring on file.

The best months listed are December through February, which is strange for a place that gets this much snow, and in those months the road itself is the question. Go when Munson Valley Road is open. Access is open and nothing is charged as far as the record shows. The temperature is a USGS reading, so check current conditions, and national park rules apply.
