Bog Hot Spring, Nevada

Northwest of the Black Rock Desert, home to Burning man, his is one of our
all time favorites located in the remote corner of Nevada, right near the
California and Oregon borders, and far enough from population areas that
yahoos are seldom a problem, especially in winter. A tremendous flow of
perfect mineral water, probably more than 1,000 gallons a minute, goes down
a 20 foot wide sandy bottomed channel with temperatures ranging from
scalding to perfect on down. See p. 13 of HOT SPRINGS & HOT POOLS OF THE
SOUTHWEST, lower right, for a shot of one of the best soaking pools.

Elevation is 4,300 feet, meaning there is real winter and there can be lots
of snow. Last time we were there, we were caught in a blinding blizzard
heading over to Surprise Valley, California, all on dirt roads, and thanked
Goddess for the experience we had for driving in snow after 44 years in
Vermont and Massachusetts.

It can be insufferably hot in summer there, but nighttime soaking is usually
pleasant. In winter, soaking is great any time. At night, the steam from the
hot water forms hoar frost on the plants and the moon glimmering off them is
a wonderful Mother Nature made sight to behold.

Free nude soaking and free nude camping. Leave no trace, please. All
services are available 13.5 miles away in Denio Junction, a neat little
settlement with a cafe adorned with photos of land speed records on the
Black Rock Desert.

From Denio Junction, take SR 140 west for 9.1 miles. Turn right (north) on
gravel and go 4 miles. on the west (left) side is a large, marshy pond. One
quarter mile after the pond, go left; the hot stream and camping areas are a
couple of hundred yards farther.

Enjoy!
