I was so sad to read this thread. When Saline Valley became part of Death Valley National Park when the California Protection Act was signed, there were fears that the NPS ruin historical uses of Saline Valley Hot Springs. It appears that those fears were well grounded... I will ceratinly write a letter today. I encourage all to do the same. Anyone who has been out to that exspansive and special place would know how crazy it is to ban nudity.
