I left Capitol reef this morning, And drove to the small town of Monroe, Utah. On the edge of town is a small Hot Springs outpost called Mystic, Hot Springs. They offered two pools and a half a dozen bathtubs to soak in the mineral water.
I would call this mineral pools rather than Hot Springs that the temperature of the pool and tub was relatively low and seem to be heated by the sun rather than actual hot water.
It’s not bad it isn’t 100% what I was expecting. An hour later, I did leave feeling more relaxed. My skin felt softer on my muscles. A little bit soothed.
After the Hot Springs, I continued on the road To Baker, Nevada, which is just across the border from Utah. I’m staying at hidden Valley Ranch, which is breathtaking, But very much romantic retreat and a little weird for me to be staying at as one person; but I’ll keep it on a list of places to visit in the future- maybe with someone new.
The ranch has a little grocery store of sorts where you can use your breakfast tokens to purchase your own food, which I really like because I have breakfast options for myself for tomorrow, but it was nice to be able to get some thing for dinner so that I don’t have to go back on the very windy Mountain roads in the dark.
I woke up early in the morning to get to my 830 cave tour at Lehman caves in great basin national park. My 10th and final national park for the summer. The cave tour was amazing and they mentioned that there will be a crawling tour that will be returning to the park in the next couple of years so I will absolutely be going back.
