Saturdays are busy as are sundays, however I find more families with kids on sunday. Fridays are great some overnight and leave sat lunchy time. If you go mon-thurs in spring expect no more than 5-10 people, alot of regulars.by deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
what is this? Does it happen at the hot springs?by deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
still in the high 70's. Weather was nice, sunny, but cooled off towards dusk. Lot's of shade on the womb tub, no need for sunscreen anymore. about 10-15 people today, and some more arriving when I was hiking out. quiet, everyone was mellow. maybe over thanksgiving weekend the weather stays nice. peace, kevinby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
well we can just hog tie his ass and carry him up the trail like a pig at a luau. But if we get to the sherriff's and turn him in and it's all a joke it is false imprisonment and kidnapping, 10-20 years. Hopefully he leaves on his own, if he needs mental help, I mean-as he needs mental help, he should go turn himself in or we can get the sherriff in, then we can pack his crap out in bags or juby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Can someone tell me how this guy Scott informed someone that he was a predator or on the run from the law? I was there last week, the guy just gets drunk and creeps around, he needs to go.by deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I have taken the hike in from 173. It is long and difficult. The hike back is 80% up hill. If you are in good shape it is an hour and a half. The first mile or so is on the side of a hill, you walk with one hand on the hill, it is steep and dangerous. With that being said if you like adventures that is the path for you. If you want to bring 3 kids, a dog, two ice chests, and heavy backpacksby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I was there today, packed out 2 bottles and two plastic jars. The water is so cold my turtle crawled in it's shell, and won't come out. If every person just packed out 4 pieces of trash the place would be spotless in a month. peace, hankby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I have met Scotty more than a few times. I am not going to put him on my christmas card list, but none the less there is no one at the springs who is a child molester or on the run from the law camping there. That all started with some other user smoking too much, uh, medicine, and getting paranoid about stuff. He's just down on his luck and in this economy there ain't much luck going around.by deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Weather has been very wet, huge lighting and thunderstorms. Some don't mind, if camping be prepared for wet and very cold (40'ish) weather. Hopefully should blow out by saturday, check your weather websites. I live local and haven't seen cold weather like this since february. as always, pack out more than you pack in. peace, kevinby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
river water is cold, I mean like 50 degrees. however the tubs have been good and warm, I don't think they have changed a degree since july. expect some cool nights, passing t-storms in the area. as always, pack out a little more than what you brought in. kevinby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I personally don't go to "oogle women". I am by nature a very friendly and outgoing person and like meeting people and saying hi. However if a couple wants private time when there are a bunch of other people at the springs, seems kind of selfish. I always view the DCHS as a community of people with something in common, relaxing, meeting new people. I don't view DCHS as a place toby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Hi Everyone, the weather was a little cool today and the hike in had a lot of wind. I saw what must have been 30 asian tourists hiking out around 3pm when I was on my way in. People in their 60's coming up the trail, hats off to them. The water from the creek was a little cooler than last week, and the tubs were nice and soakable but not as hot as usual. About 20 people total and I met a fewby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
It was a scorcher today. I hiked out at 2:30pm had to be 105 degrees. Advisory to all people, stay late-hike out at dusk, carry extra water and/or gatorade. And to the 5 kids throwing budweiser cans on the trail,thanks, collected like 40 cents. all others please squish your cans and pack them out. peace, luv, and skinny dipping.by deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I go once a week and yes I meet girls there traveling but mostly with another girl, or friend. As far as anybody being harassed by drunk pervs on the rocks i have never seen it, and if I saw a girl being harassed I would tell him to mellow out and give the girl(s) some space. So anybody that is taking pics of guys to post on the internet that is a big no-no. No pics allowed unless you get permby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I think I passed you on the way out I left the parking lot at about 4:00, stayed till 7 or so. I have been cleaning up downstream a little so any help is always appreciated. I saw one grey dog and a white one, medium size I think. That grafitti will be there for a long time too bad. kbby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I arrived around 4pm,parked at Bowen as usual. Dag nabbits' I need to get a 4X4 to drive in. The hot tubs seemed a few degrees cooler than last month, and the water does not rush in so fast from upstream. I go once a week and live locally so anyone who wants to come up PM me if you need help with directions or anything. Any group who needs a day guide or trip advisor PM me. I always find thaby deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Awesome tip. I generally leave by 7pm at the latest. I may bring a flashlight and stay a little late Friday.by deepcreekvip - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
