This is one of the tougher hot springs to see in Yellowstone, since it's only barely visible from on the trail — but please do obey the rules about staying on trail. When people go off-trail in a location this popular, the place quickly and inevitably ends up being trash. (For proof, just look at what happened to the Morning Glory pool, also in Yellowstone.)

Anyway: The most interesting thing about this place is an arrowhead that was found at the spring, thus its name.
