What I used: An old Nikon D80 that was converted into an infrared camera. The infrared camera can be used to create some unique images.

Take a Dip in the Meadow Hot Springs

Millard County, Utah

3.8

These hot springs are located on private property but the owner allows anyone to come and take a dip. You can camp overnight and also have fires in the several pits near the pools. He just asks all the visitors to keep it cleaner than they found it and Leave No Trace of course. There are 3 different pools, but the first one is said to be the warmest.
