Many visitors each year get scalded by sticking their hands or toes into a boiling hot springs within the park boundaries. These are not the soaking hot springs. Some are running well over 150F - several are 180F+ (nearly 90C)
The river mentioned above is where my buddies went to soak in the river, sort of a mixture between ice water and boiling water, you have to be in just the right spot to not freeze or cook yourself. The ice melt water runs around 55F, while the hot water is something like 120F. Yes it is open to the public and free.
Good luck,
Fred.
