NJN, the odds are that the weather at the time of year you are visiting will provide warm conditions for hiking nekid to DCHS. Check the weather first since occasional storms do occur in April. You may want to check out some pictures of DCHS and surrounding areas in Deep Creek. There are lots at my picture site on this forum page below in the Wizard's pictures link, and also in the link just above that one, which is " more hot spring pictures " where there are more under Wizard at that site. We also have a group called Deep Creek Volunteers who do work to help keep DCHS a nice place to visit. If you look in Yahoo search under " Deep Creek Hot Springs ", then look through the sites pulled up for Deep Creek Volunteers, which last time I checked was in the top 40 sites, it should be easy to locate. Wish you well on your visit :-)
