What’s Hot in Idaho

By Linda Tancs

Numerous natural hot springs pools can be found along Idaho’s Highway 21, also known as the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway. One of those sites is Kirkham Hot Springs outside Lowman. Nestled on the South Fork of the Payette River below a highway campground, a staircase leads adventurers down to the soaking pools. What distinguishes this locale from other geothermal pools are the small, steaming waterfalls as well. The site is open for day use only. You can enjoy the warm water this time of year without the summer crowds when the site is swarming with tourists and the lack of shade heats up the place.
