Awesome destination! My favorite hot spring so far in Arizona, and second anywhere only to Gila Hot Springs in NM. Did this loop clockwise, getting the ups and downs and exposure out of the way early in the morning, and taking the slow and steady incline protected by the shade of the canyon walls around midday on the way out. Water in the first pool was probably around 120 degrees, almost too hot where it was first seeping out of the walls. As I expected, we had to endure a couple of older middle aged guys (there’s always at least one) who strip down to show off body parts far from impressive. Water in the Colorado was gorgeous, along the sides a clear, emerald color.

Nice flow, and hot where seeped out of rock, around 120 degrees.
