Summer 2011 Molly’s Hot Spring Trip Reports
Had to make some hose adjustments, but after about an hour of work and waiting I was able to get the temperature and flow just right for a soak. I made the hike up to the sources and was able to survey the situation from above. There wasn’t much trash to pick up and didn’t have any visitors either. I did notice that the hoses had been adjusted between the times I soaked; must have just missed someone else.
The chiggers nibbled at first, but eventually ate me alive!! Chiggers are either Red Spider Mites on steroids, or are some mutant variant that are no fun to deal with. I really liked my soak at Molly’s after hiking up to Tule Lake and back, but the chiggers will definitely get me to think twice next time I’m in the area.
