Hannah Hot Spring

We're heading to Hannah Hot Spring this weekend with the Tucson Backpackers Meetup. We're heading into the Blue Range from NM. Does anyone have any recent information regarding Hannah Canyon and Hannah Hot Spring? I've read all the posts in the forum on the topic - so I'm looking for updated/newer information. Should I plan on swimming a bunch? Status of the hot spring? Tracklogs? Good campsites for several tents? I'm looking forward to the adventure of exploration! This is a remote area for which there is very little information available ...

Look at the real time data sheet for the Blue River and you will see it is very low. You will just be wading a bit.

The east side of the Blue River is very dry in the fall, so I would worry more about whether Hannah Creek is running or not.

I have not been to that exact place, though. This is as much info as I know offhand. Have you called the ranger station to see if there is a knowledgeable person there? I think it is in the Clifton RD.

Wish I had time to join you but I am snowed under right now with homework.
