Hot Creek Geological Site is such an incredible place! The winter air is crisp and cold but the water is warm and lovely! When there is too much snow you must hike and it is about a 1 mile hike, if there is not much snow you can drive to a place where it is only a 2 minute walk down to the creek. Make sure to follow the signs and do NOT SWIM in the hot pool, only the river.

Slightly larger than the rock and hilltop Hot Springs. Wild willies is a lot more well-known but a lot less up-kept than both. This is a very fun hot springs to visit and is close enough to the road with parking nearby  so you don’t have to have a long walk in. (Photos found on Google.)

Riding up the gondola at the village is the perfect way to get to the slopes since you don’t need to find parking especially if you’re able to walk to the gondola from where you are staying. We always try to find a place that is close enough to walking distance to the slopes. Spending an entire day at the slopes is needed so pack, snacks, and lots of water and enjoy the slopes.

Cave Rock was a super short but fun hike and an INCREDIBLE view! The Google maps directions are a bit weird. To get to the hiking trail, you need to go up the street called Cave Rock Drive till you see the small parking lot. If there is no parking, you can park in the state park across the street and walk up the street to get to the trail.

We loved the Eagle Falls hike! It was beautiful in the snow, and it even snowed during the hike! It was short and easy if you are a good hiker. BRING WATER AND WATERPROOF SHOES! We did not have snowshoes, but we did have snow boots that did not get wet during the hike. It was a beautiful hike!
