A forest walk to a spring the Forest Service itself names 'warm', which is fair notice for anyone hoping for a hot tub. Park at the Battleship Rock Trailhead off NM 4, about five miles north of Jemez Springs, and follow East Fork Trail #137 roughly 1.8 miles each way. There's no potable water, so carry your own, and expect snow on the trail in winter. The Forest Service doesn't publish a temperature, a pool description or a fee, so set out for the walk and count the soak as a bonus.
