The off season

[AlmostThere]

Willetts Hot Springs is a new fave of mine... the horse packers leave chairs in the tin shacks at Willetts camp, among other things, and having a freshwater faucet right in camp is kind of posh for a backpacking camp. And the tub! mmm, so nice to watch the bats come out of the rocks and skim bugs off the surface of the hot tub at dusk.

By spring the creek will be full again and there'll be tons of swimming holes to lounge in.

Someday I'll get all the way to Sespe hot springs.... maybe go in over Johnson Ridge instead of being distracted on the way in from the other trailheads.

I ride dirt bikes in the desert during the winter, or hike lower elevation hikes.
