One thing you shouldn’t do when visiting a hot spring? Well, just read Nanci Dixon’s hilarious story and you’ll find out.


we used to but haven’t since the 90’s.
We are going to the Hot Springs in Hot Springs, NC later this summer.
Our travels don’t take us near one. Maybe some day.
With campground over crowding we are traveling more and more in the off season and hot springs feel fantastic on a cool Fall or early Spring evening.
We used to visit a few in the Sierras years ago, but they started getting overrun with fat hairy naked European men, always by themselves, and it got kind of creepy. So we quit going.
This is funny. I have a visual from your description. Not good – ha.
When I was bicycling cross-country back in ’79’ I ran across a few hot springs by accident. They were usually the only bathing opportunities I had. I would just sit and “luxuriate” in them. No soap to ruin the spring(s).
We are at one right now.
It is a treat, especially the natural ones with an historical background. One must be aware of the rules and the times they are most populated to truly have an enjoyable experience.
Chena Hot Springs and Liard Hot Springs always!
We do not seek them, but we did visit one near our campground a few years ago. It remains the only time we did so.
