Isolated in the heart of the San Juan National Forest Park, this shallow, man-made hot spring not only offers a relaxing and rejuvenating dip for the weary traveler (after taking a three-mile hike through a mostly-unpaved trail, of course), but is a good place to enjoy some animal-watching, with regular sightings of the local wildlife. It isn't uncommon to see deer, elks and otters roaming about.
