I am sorry to have upset anyone by soaking at this spring. Perhaps something should be said to the authors of Hot Springs and Hot Pools of the Northwest because it is very clear in that book that if the spring is respected, kept clean, and not camped near, that soaking is fine with the land owner. I hope that the fact we spent 3 hours scrubbing half an inch of algae off the sides before soaking for 1.5 hours, plus cleaning up trash from around the pool, makes it ok that we stopped. The pool had obviously not been cleaned in over a week so I wonder where this Michele was that will possibly shoot trespassers!
