Hot Creek - Geologic Site
Volcanic activity here in the Hot Creek Geologic Site can raise water temperatures above boiling point and be heavily laden with Sulfuric Acid. Not a creek to you would want to fall into. This is a beautiful area to visit, especially in the winter; however, when visiting the site, please follow directions and stay behind the fence line; stay safe. The bottom line is that this is an extraordinary place to experience. The best time of day is sunrise; you will have the sun at your backlighting all of the canyon and riverbeds will be lit.
