I was joined by a few buddies this past weekend to spend an evening at Willett Hot Springs...

Temps dropped down to the 20's but it was still a great hike and the views were spectacular...the fall colors were a sight to see.

Awesome picture. Nice report. How was the water? Condition of the tub? Any other parties there?

It was dry for the most part but water was available when you needed it. Bear Creek camp had water and about a quarter mile after the camp, there is a spring coming from the side of the trail that you could get water from. About another 3 miles or so from Bear Creek there is a small crossing that also had water flow.

When you arrive at Willett, there is also water to the left of the trail before heading uphill to the hot springs. The tub was a bit low when we arrived there but one of the guys with us manage to reconnect the pipes to fill up the tub. Water was warm but the smell of sulfur was strong...I couldn't stand being there for too long.
