Hello, all. My boyfriend and I just moved to mountains and just discovered that this exists. I see that there are several ways to access the hot springs. Driving to bowen ranch I think would take a long time just driving there, whereas the access point off the 173 seems like somewhat less of a drive from us. From the info I gathered, we would have to take the 173 north (we are coming from lake arby cndvgl - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
