Hotspring Island, Gwaii Haanas National Park, British Columbia, Canada CM11-010

Description : Gandll in Gwaayaay (Haida for Hot-Water-Island) was well known for the healing and spiritual qualities of its natural thermal pools. This is a sacred place for the Haida. There was a village located on the east side of the island but little evidence is visible today.

The best place to come ashore is on the northeast side of the island.
The heated mineral waters spring from the ground in a series of terraced pools at temperatures ranging from 89-170 degrees Fahrenheit (31-76 degrees Celsius). The natural hot tubs look out over Juan Perez Sound.
