Awesome campground

About a 5 mile backpack trail that leads you to the hot springs. They can be hard to find but it’s along side of the creek with rocks stacked around to make a pool which is the springs. The hikes through some burnt forest but is still gorgeous nonetheless. There’s a few spots at the springs to sleep at for the night to have the springs for yourself. Definitely recommend this one!

Access to hot springs!

4.5-5 mile hike in on the West Fork Trail in the Weminuche wilderness. Some ups and downs along the trail with some river crossings - great man made bridges. Severa great camping spots along the trail closer to the hot springs, with access to 3 pools. Bring a water filter and access water from the San Juan River. Can get stormy in the afternoons so make sure to bring rain gear!
