Grand Teton National Park’s worst-kept secret is actually located just north of the park in the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway area. Formerly the site of a private campground, all traces of development have been removed and the 100°-105°F springs have reverted back to their natural state. Locals soak here year-round, using cross-country skis to gain access in the winter. The shadeless pools can be too hot for pleasant soaking in full midday sun. Trail access can be a bit dodgy mid-April through mid-May due to heavy bear activity. Access beyond Flagg Ranch to Grassy Lake Road is often restricted during this period. If hiking in the fall during the hunting season, it's best to wear bright orange!
