For us newbies...where is Pan Hot Springs located.

And, can I come jump into the bath water while there is still snow on the ground?


Head out like you were going to go to the desert towards Baldwin Lake on North shore. It is the last set of structures on the right side of the road just before Baldwin Lake.

Living in the West end I swam at Stillwells most of the time, and seldom got to Pan hot.

Later on a bunch of us were taking scuba diving classes from a local deputy. He was graciously loaned the pool for our use. It was in the winter and the inside pool was very nice and warm. once being maucho we decided to use the outside pool. I don't think any of us lasted more then a few seconds as it was probably about 50 dehrees.

For some reason I would get a rash from something in the water and one time scraped my foot and got an infection and couldn't walk the next day untill I got a shot from the doctor.
It was a very neat place and has a great history and I'm sure there are a lot of stories to tell.

I wish you the best in getting it going again. My son lives very close and I'm sure they will teach their daughter to swim in the pool.

And thanks to you and Fred for the pictures. I wish we could get him on here to share his stories.

The temperature went up after the landers/ big bear quakes. .
Right now there is an auful lot of shaking going on in the state. and in Alaska. I'm sure you will notice a connection as you follow it. Masybe even be able to predict a bit.

Debbie Doo? Pan Hot Springs is a 5 acre property adjacent east of the Mormon Church with 300 feet of frontage on State Highway 18 ( North Shore Drive) And no we are not allowing swimming now that we are in a permit stage and do not want to p#* off the power that be.

I'm with you there. I used to enjoy them untill that morning and the following week. Now I don't enjoy them at all.
Our water in the park I am at now is 105 degrees. We sit right on top of a leg of the san andreas.

Bill's Grandson: Since we do not have temp reading right before the 92 quake we do not know if the temps went up because of that event. What we do know is that the artesian flow returned to it historical flow (1915/ 40 gpm: 1993/40 gpm)and that the artesian flow was not enough prior to the 92 quake, Pan Hot was pumping water to mainain temps in the pools. I have taken temps after all major aftershocks and quakes ie Hector, and the temps did not change (93 degrees). Because of information from testing of Pan Hot Springs by the USGS two yearts ago we know that the water from the springs is over 8,000 year old since it was last surface ground water and that it moves quickly through the mountain formation, and that it is heated by a magma source 2,000 feet below sea level. The San Bernardino's are a basalt formation( molten rock cooled below the surface and heaved through plate teutonics), and are not a volcanic formation. We also know that the Baldwin lake basin is over 2,000 feet deep with alluvim and the soils are about 700 feet deep at the site of Pan Hot Springs. We also know that wells a mile away are heated to 87 degrees at a depth 0f 700+ feet deep indicating significant spreading of the geothermal waters. These soils are saurated with cool ground water (55-57 degrees) and I believe the geothermal waters are cooling as they rise through the saturated soils and that because of tha shaking of the 92 event allowed a return to the historical flow allowed the heated water to resume its temps. And I belive that with the new pumping system that I installed this past summer ( increased flow to 145 gpm) allowed the thermal waters to move faster through the saturated soils reducing the contact with the ground water temps and thus showing higher temps than ever before.
