We were stoked to have Molly to ourselves after passing the
jam-packed tubs just up the road. No trash! Woo Hoo! Great work
everyone; keep picking up trash and utilizing low-impact techniques
as this hot spring is in a very sensitive area. The pool was back to
its original size, and finding the right mix of hot water to come
out of the right hose proved to be quite difficult. After more hose
fidgeting we were able to warm up the pool enough for a quick soak.
Had we more time I believe we could have engineered a better setup.
All in all, a nice trip.

Very nice. The size of the single pool has increased along with overall
depth, and to top it off the temperature was a perfect 102º. Some
careful engineering of the hot and warm water flows have enabled the
soaker more control of their ideal soaking temperature. Despite it being
hunting season we didn't see anyone else at this hot springs. Molly's
Hot Spring was a pleasant surprise and an excellent soak. There are
excellent camping spots near but not next to the hot springs, along with
additional hot springs in a mere .5 mi radius.

It has recently come to my attention that the pool at Molly's has been
improved since my last visit. Apparently, it is much easier to control the
temperature of the pool and the pool is deeper. I can't wait to get out
there and verify this!

Molly's was a bit cool on the day we visited. Another couple who were there before us had turned the hot water on so to speak, but the pool would still need another day or so to warm completely. No trash... my only beef was that the guy who was already there was not treading lightly.
We noticed 5 vehicles with California plates this trip, plus the couple at Molly's HS were also from CA. We did not see or run into
any non-Californians besides the lady with all of her kids at Vulcan
HS.
