It's a river's birthplace. One hundred and twenty million gallons of pure water a day -- enough to meet the water needs of a million people -- surge out of the ground here. A short distance from the glassy pool is a bridge. Toss bread crumbs into the water from it, and you'll see that constant flow (at a year-round temperature of 52 degrees) and the clean gravel bottom make for perfect trout habitat. Big Springs' trout get BIG. Leave your fishing pole in the car, though: No fishing is allowed until below the outlet to Henry's Lake, several miles away.
Take the short walking trail around the pond to reach Johnny Sack's cabin. Johnny was a German immigrant who built his cozy cabin and its furnishings by hand out of local trees. He also built a water wheel turned by spring water tumbling out of the hillside. The wheel provided electricity and brought water uphill to the cabin. Johnny's old place is now a visitor center and an attraction in its own right.

The trail from the Warm River Campground to the tunnel is a classic trip for beginners. It is an easy uphill grade. As you travel further up the canyon you steadily gain elevation above the river bed, providing a pleasing view of the canyon, the river, and the forest
The trail from the Warm River Campground to the tunnel is a classic trip for beginners. It is an easy uphill grade. As you travel further up the canyon you steadily gain elevation above the river bed, providing a pleasing view of the canyon, the river, and the forest. In the end, you are rewarded with a fun ride threw the old rail road tunnel. For the more adventuresome cyclist, you can continue up the trail for another 50 miles if you want. Of course the ride down is a pleasant glide back to the campground.
