## About Moffetts (Bonneville) Hot Springs

Moffetts Hot Springs, also listed as Bonneville Hot Springs, sits a few dozen feet above sea level near Cascade Locks, which is the town on record. The county on file is Hood River. The water comes out a shade under body temperature, a long, gentle soak kind of warm. Access is listed open, and the ground is Forest Service, part of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.

The closest road, unnamed in the record, is two tenths of a mile off. Low ground, seventy-odd feet of elevation. The climate is wet and mild, with under a hundred inches of snow in a typical year and close to eighty inches of precipitation. Designated national forest, fee unrecorded.

The spring carries two names in the record, Moffetts and Bonneville, and USGS carries it as a thermal site.

Eagle Creek Overlook group site is the camping listed, under two miles away. The winter months come up as best in the record, and at this elevation snow is less of a problem than it would be higher up. The warmth is comfortable and carries no scald risk. Nothing in the record describes a pool or a bath type, so go expecting to find out for yourself.
