Just came back from the springs. It was a pretty good day though the people who came almost spoiled it. Some idiot must've stepped on the pipe and it came apart above the valve. Somebody connected 2 pieces with a hose to keep it going. Last Monday I cleaned up all wax in and out of Womb and Anniversary. It's back and somebody stole the brush I hid near by. Damn it.

Hi! I am wandering how high the creek is right now? Is it possible to cross on the rocks upstream ? Thank you in advance, Samby Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I just came across the following article on yahoo.com and curious if while I am at the DC I can expect reasonable expectation of privacy ? http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=528&ncid=528&e=2&u=/ap/20041210/ap_on_hi_te/video_voyeursby Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California

The accident, if there was one, happened 350 ft from the power lines crossing the road as I was coming from the springsby Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I was leaving the springs at around 7:15 PM. In the part of the road where it crosses the power lines I saw 3 police interceptors and 1 paramedic vehicle attending to a man. I did not see if his car was overturned as the blinking lights kind of blinded me. Does anybody have more info? Is this the portion of the road people call "deadman's curve?" Just curiousby Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I agree with LaughingBear that exposed roots on a grown three is a normal thing. I am worried, however, that people walk over the roots every single day. I saw damage to the outer layer and it won't be long before damage goes deeper.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I think trash looked pretty new. At least beer bottles had modern look.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
It's off topic, but where do you fish for Albacore offshore, LaughingBear ? And what do you use for bait ?by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California

I was at the DC yesterday. I saw rangers who came with a guy from fire dept to determine the best way to fly out the cut brash. I overheard them talking about forrest closure at DC. I should happen next week.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Hi Sycamore! The bottles I found were Heiniken and Coors. I guess those locals kept the word. The wax was at the Womb and Anniversary pools. I clean up some off Womb but more needs to be done to remove old wax.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Just came back from the springs. It was a pretty adventurous day. At around 4 PM we saw a helicopter hovering in circles above the DC. It turned out to be another dehydrated hiker. The woman did not look to be out of shape but I question the decision to leave so early. The rescue took place pretty close to the most recent rescue. Ron went up the hill to see if they could use his help. I have to aby Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I did cleaned up a few rocks but that probably consists of only 5% of what needs tobe done. We should be thankful to the true hero of this place - Frank. The guy is a restless ultimate cleaning machine.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Hi! I just came from the springs. I saw Scott being pretty bitter about his recent escapades. I did not see him selling anything but he told everybody around how bad DC volunteers are on telling on him to authorities. It was a good day all around. There were probably 200+ people some of them camping at the springs. It did not feel crowded though.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
What happened to the brochure box at the trail head ?by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I praise Mike Castro for his refusal of Scott's business offer. This guy sold beer, pot and possibly other drugs to teenagers. He monopolized shade and cooked meals half naked in deplorable hygienic conditions. People come to the springs to get away from it all.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
... I believe he's also selling pot, beer and arrowheads made by vet. guy. Anybody knows somebody at Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms agency ?by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Just came back from the springs. Candle wax is everywhere. I cleaned up some around Aniv. pool but it was only 5% of what needs to be done. Can we just stop burning G-d damn candles around the pools, please. That, and for the love of G-d, please keep your G-d damn dogs away from the pools.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California

I came across a description of a condition caused by some parasites in some Nevada hot springs. The condition is called "Swimmer's Itch". Just do the search on google for Swimmer's Itch and see the results. In my opinion, Swimmer's Itch = Deep Creek rash.by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Hi! I checked the weather.com web site and the forecast is for rains to stop on Friday. How long do you think it will take for water level to go down enough so the creek is passable via Bowen Ranch road ? Any info is greatly appreciated!by Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Just came from a wonderful day at the springs. There were around 60 people coming and going. People on horses showed up and you could see the damage to the lower part of the BR trail as well as the "leavings" upstream. I've never seen so much wax in and around the pools. I filled 3 tall beer cans with candle wax in Anniversary pool and 1 can at the womb. This probably represents 1/50thby Sam D. - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
Hi! Please post a report on Bowen Ranch road condition. I check weather.com site and it says the weather is sunny. Yet, reading previous posts I can see there is snow and mud on the roads. Can my sedan make it safely ? I plan on going tomorrow or on Friday. Please post updates time permitting.

Hi! Sorry to bug you but have you come across really good and thorough directions to the springs from Los Angeles on the internet ? So far I haven't been able to find where to go from 395. Also, if you have a printed map, can you tell me what it's called exactly so I can order it as well. Unless it's raining, I am pretty much set for Pres. Day.
