Description and Directions posted in RixPlace forum . . .
Odorless and tasteless natural mineral water at about 100 degrees bubbles up through the sandy canyon floor. The four person volunteer built stone and sand pool is about fifteen inches deep and averages in the mid 90's depending on air temperature and wind speed. 150 yards farther down the canyon, cold Burro Creek flows most of the year.
Large pink and yellow boulders beckon sunbathers. Nude soaking and hiking (when it's warm enough) are the only sensible choice. Free nude camping anywhere in the area, but don't camp on the floor of the canyon if there's any chance of precipitation anywhere in the area.
Directions: From Burrow Creek Campground, take Hwy 93 north 5.5 miles to Kaiser Wash Bridge. Park well off the pavement just north of the bridge and head southwest down the canyon for 1.5 miles to the spring. One may also take the turnoff north of the bridge and go under the bridge for nice shaded parking and walk down the canyon. If one has a high clearance 4WD vehicle, go north to Signal Road to turn around and head back south. 0.1 miles south of MP 134 (about a quarter mile north of the bridge) go right (southwest) over the cattle guard and follow the dirt track. Take the second left at 0.3 miles and go 0.9 miles to the canyon. Walk down the canyon to the right 0.7 miles to the spring.
