Glenwood Spring's own
Hot
Springs Pool

Experience this
natural wonder! The large pool is 400 X 100
ft with a water temperature kept at 90
degrees. The smaller pool, known as the
therapy pool, is kept at a temperature of
104 degrees.
A common
questions is "where does the hot water come
from"? It's from a natural spring, called
the Yampah spring. As detailed on the Hot
Springs Pool website, "The Yampah spring is
located at the eastern most end of our
property. It has a daily flow of 3,500,000
gallons of water, at approximately 122
degrees F, or 51 degrees C. The source for
the Yampah spring is water percolated
through fractures in the bedrock formation
and into the Leadville aquifer. As this
occurs the water is heated by the geothermal
gradient in the area. The source of water
for the spring is from south of the Colorado
River in the Lookout Mountain and Grand
Hogback areas."
