May 26, 2010 – 4 miles hiked
Today was an easy day as we only planned to hike to Jordan Hot Springs along the Middle Fork Trail (157) which is only 2 miles one way from our campsite. There are a total of 15 waters crossings (one way) so we decided to wait until 10 am to start the trip. The hot spring is absolutely fantastic and relaxing. The description of its location from the guide book made it sound as though we would have to search for the hot springs. Nothing could be further from the truth. Only a blind man with a horrible sense of direction could have missed the “hot tubs” that have been created out of the hot spring. We spent over an hour soaking up the 90+ degree water. The temperature was just right for prolonged soaking. When we arrived there was on guy, totally naked, in the hot spring. Ed told him we had a lady with us and all he did was look at Ed and said nothing. We all got in (with shorts or bathing suits) and shortly thereafter two ladies who had ridden up on horse back joined us. There were 8 in the “hot tub” with room for 8 more.
