Looking for clothing optional 420 friendly hotspring resorts in CA, NV, AZ or UT,

I’ve been to mercey hotsprings and Mi Kasa hotsprings resort and really enjoyed them. I especially liked mi kasa for their 420 friendly policy, are there any other resorts in the southwest that are similar to mi kasa ? I was looking for a room for this weekend but they’re booked :/

Anyone been to Dakota recently outside of Colorado Springs?

Last few times I've went its been DEAD. Ever since they started making RSVP cut off times, everytime i go theres Been less than 5 people. Even when i would go solo, you could at least start a conversation. Has anyone gone recently or am i going on the wrong nights? It doesn't feel as social as it used to, or it could just be me? Idk there used to be like a dozen or so people there at any one time.. thoughts?

Natural Camping Hot Springs Mildly Near Bay Area

Looking to get an escape and find good hot springs within a 3-4 hour drive that are camp-able. I love Wild Willies in Bishop but that is just too far. Looking at this map there should be a ton: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/b4e8785f0f75464b9e08547ccf0b18d7 But struggling to find any actual camp grounds.

Oregon Hot Springs

Any recommendations on Oregon Hot Springs for fall/winter time visits? Preferably west of cascades.

Midway Hotsprongs

Does anyone know if the Midway hot springs (not the crater but the ones that were just out in a vacant lot in some neighborhood) is still around? About 20 years ago someone cleaned them up, put down gravel and made them really nice, then about 15 years ago it got bought up by someone that made it private property and the police hovered around giving everyone that scoffed at the signs a class b misdemeanor, but since then, anyone know what happened or what’s going on with them today?

Fifth water hot springs in Utah is dead

Warning: rant ahead. Hiked to fifth water in Utah today at 5 AM and it was awesome for about 30 minutes. I went nude cause I was all alone and then some guy comes and asks me to put my swimsuit on (no big deal but I was a little annoyed since I was there first and there was plenty other places for him to go). Then the influencers came. I went to a section that’s kinda hidden and before long two women show up and will not stop taking posed pictures of each other. I decide to go to the main springs cause they are annoying me and it’s even worse. One woman has a tripod set up taking pics. Then another woman has a professional photographer taking pictures with a drone flying overhead. I got home and immediately deleted my social media accounts (except Reddit) cause I’m so sick and tired of influencers ruining cool spots like hot springs. I was really looking forward to this trip cause life has been so stressful and it felt ruined. Rant over, thanks for listening.

Mystic HS in UT... worth an overnight?

Hey there we'll be passing through SLC to parts South in October. Mystic is on the way. Is it worth staying overnight at the campground or better to soak and bail? How are the crowds on weekends?

Connecting with people you meet. I recently met someone and had a great conversation. Nothing physical. We shared enough information about ourselves to make this person easy to find. While we didn’t share contact info - is it weird creepy to reach out?

Seems I’ve moved to a dry spot..

I’m a avid hot springer and I’ve moved to the north Idaho/ east Washington area. I’ve done some research and come up short. Is there and hot springs around Moscow/ Spokane area?

Build and fill party November 15-17 western Idaho

Hey everyone I am hoping to get a group of people together to help build and fill a hot spring. By build I mean to improve or build up an existing spring. To either make a new pool or expand and deepen an existing pool. I would like to celebrate our completion of the project with a nude soak and maybe a little adult fun. Right now I am just trying to see who is interested and if you have any suggestions for hot springs that could use some building up. Let me know what you think.
