Steam Vents
Drag the handle to compare the two views. The orange dot marks the spring, in a frame about three quarters of a mile wide.
This is a set of steam vents in Hawaii County, a couple of miles from Leilani Estates and roughly 500 feet off Pāhoa-Kalapana Road. The record qualifies them as hot and gives no temperature or elevation. No owner is named and no access rule is given. Steam is what is on file, and nothing says there is water to sit in.
Short walk from Pāhoa-Kalapana Road, roughly 500 feet. No elevation recorded. The climate is wet year-round, over seventy inches of rain, with no snow.
There is no best season on record. Nobody has written down who owns this or what the access rules are, so ask locally. It is a set of vents with no water temperature taken, so do not turn up expecting a soak.
