Spring identity and temperatures quoted from the NCEI Thermal Springs List (historical reading, 1981 compilation); access facts are cited to the land manager on each spring's page.

Water temperatures change with flow and season — test before entering, and never submerge your head in warm natural water. CDC guidance on Naegleria fowleri.
