I started out at the gravel pit on hotsprings road on the right about 1 mile before the pavent ended. There is a second gravel pit that is at the beginning of the dirt to the left also, I found that one last night on my return trip. I went south and stopped in at winter camp then followed a two track south out of there to indian hot springs. The road looks like someone has tried to smoth it out but also lots of cattle track so it was loose with lots of small rock and and occasional medium sided rocks. I feel this check in point will very on the type of bike you ride. I took the DRZ400e and my buddy was on a 400s with e gearing. So it wasn’t hard. The hot springs have a few metal tubs laying around that have been shot at ut overall a neat area to visit.
I did a loop passing through Winter Camp first then down the less steep road to Indian Hot Springs. I crossed the river and drove up the more steep side. I have done this trip before and the better loop direction is Indian Hot Springs first then Winter Camp.
The steep side is covered in rocks. I made it out fine but I really had to use my clutch to keep the revs up!
