The Hot Spring:
Casey Hot Springs are one of the random hot spots we have documented that is not in any books. The books probably don't include it because there is nothing soakable but it has potential. It also may be that the authors of the other books did not know about it because they always drove on the playa between Double Hot Springs and Black Rock Hot Spring, but if you drive the bumpy four wheel drive road you drive right past these little hot pots. The video we have was taken just for fun to show how bumpy the dirt road is and we happened to drive past the hot springs.
Casey Hot Springs is a line of silty death pits where the water bubbles up from the bottom. There are a total of five to ten hot pots ranging from 2 to 6 feet in diameter and several feet deep. We couldn't get a good temperature reading because the ground was mushy around the springs but we could tell they were very hot. This is a very random spring but we like to explore and document all geothermal locations!
