Warm Springs Bay
Warm Springs is located on the east coast of Baranof Island, just off Chatham Strait. Baranof Lake, a sizeable glacially-fed freshwater lake, is about a half mile from the settlement. Baranof Lake is fed from small, unnamed glacial run-off streams and the relatively large Baranof River. Between the half-mile outlet between Baranof Lake and Warm Springs Bay, rapids and waterfalls have proven to be lethal when run. Baranof Warm Springs is a tiny community, having only caretakers in the winter and intermittent visitors in the summer. There are around fifteen seasonal homes. Baranof Warm Springs was used frequently by the Tlingit of Angoon. People of Western descent found the springs in 1891.
