Webmaster Profile: The Hot Springs Guy

Backcountry JoshLabeled (happily) by National Geographic Traveler as the "Hot Springs Guy", the IdahoHotSprings.com Webmaster has traveled to places that very few know of, let alone have ever visited. Since 1999, he has been documenting hiking, backpacking and back road driving trips to hot springs throughout Idaho and the Northwest. While he enjoys the occasional roadside or day hike soak, his true passion is backpacking to hot springs deep within protected wilderness areas.

HSG (Hot Springs Guy) was born in South Dakota and raised in the Coeur d'Alene Idaho and Spokane Washington area. He is a Boise State University B.B.A. graduate in Business Management with an emphasis on Computer Information Systems, has spent time in San Francisco during the original .com boom, received wetland and geothermal energy training from the Department of Environmental Quality and has been employed as a freelance/consultant web marketer, designer and webmaster for over a decade.

Two Types of Hot Springs

This website covers two very different types of hot springs, public and commercial. Public hot springs are typically on public land and are considered a somewhat 'rustic' or 'wilderness' style of soak. Commercial hot springs are typically on private land and usually require a fee of some sort to access.
