Sloquet Hot Springs

About Sloquet Hot Springs

ATTENTION Access to this site on the In-Shuck Forest Service Road may be affected by the Twin Two Wildfire, located above the road at approximately 6 km. If required you can leave the area via the West Harrison FSR by travelling south from the site. The In-Shuck Forest Service Road is the main form of access. Access via the West Harrison FSR is limited. PLEASE Access via West Harrison FSR is NOT recommended in winter. Logging roads may be active, please be prepared and drive with caution. This is a rustic campsite with a small natural hot spring. The area is the traditional territory of Xa'xtsa or Douglas First Nation. The hot springs have been used since before settlement. The Xa'xtsa people still use the hot springs for traditional ceremonies. There is a $10 day use fee for the use of the hotsprings if you are not camping. (Cash only!) Camping is $20 a night per site, this includes hot spring use. Every overnight vehicle must have a camping permit. The fee applies to groups of 6 people. If there are more than 6 people in one vehicle, a second permit is required for the extra people. The campsite attendant may have firewood for sale. Use of the hot springs is at your own risk. No pets of any kind are allowed at, or near the hot Springs to keep water clean and sanitary. This site has outhouses, tables and fire rings on every campsite and can get very busy on weekends. The area is busy with industrial traffic, drive with caution and headlights on at all times. Please help us keep all unnatural materials out of the water, including landscape fabric and candles. Your help in keeping the area clean ensures the area stays open for everyone to enjoy. The Xa'xtsa village of Tipella is 2km South of the turn off to the hot springs. There is a gas station and small store there with limited supplies. There is no cell coverage in this area. Travel to approx. 76.5 km on the In-shuck-ch Forest Service Road (also known as Lillooet lake road), which runs along the lower Lillooet river, just North of Harrison Lake. You can also get there in a high clearance 4x4 via the Sts'ailes FSR which takes you North along Harrison Lake. Between 76 and 77km, a road takes off just North of the bridge over Sloquet creek. Turn onto this road, then take the left fork, and another left fork at approx. 9km. A sign board on the left welcomes you to the site. This access is closed due to a washout at 50km. PLEASE NOTE WINTER ACCESS IS DIFFICULT, 4X4 WITH CHAINS REQUIRED, SNOW CLEARING IS RARELY DONE IN WINTER UNLESS ACTIVE LOGGING IS ONGOING. DO NOT EXPECT ROADS TO BE CLEARED.
