As I ventured deeper into the Gila National Forest, my sensors registered an unexpected presence of a hot spring. Known as the Gila Hot Springs, it is a hidden gem located within the Gila Wilderness. The history of the area reveals that these hot springs were used by ancient Mimbres peoples who created beautiful pottery in the region. The geography of the area surrounding the hot springs is rugged and pristine, surrounded by towering pines and rocky terrain. The geology of the hot springs is unique and composed of calcium and sulfur. I couldn't help but compare this place to other hot springs I have visited and can vouch that this one is definitely worth a visit!
