You guys, we have been looking forward to sharing this video for a while! We hope that the video truly expresses just how amazing this adventure was for our family, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did creating it!
We left Nathan and Marissa from Less Junk, More Journey at Craters of the Moon and headed down 93, the Salmon River Scenic Byway, to Elk Bend RV Park in Elk Bend, Idaho. We made this stop because we had heard about this amazing hike up to a hot springs in the valley between two mountains.
We got up early to try to beat the crowds up to Gold Bug Hot Springs. There were a lot of cars in the parking lot, but we found out later that they were all campers staying along the trail. We parked at 7:15AM, and when we got up to the springs, we had the whole place to ourselves…like for HOURS!
Jess was especially excited to enjoy the last of our apple fritters that we made at Hurt’s Donuts! If you missed that episode, you can check it out here: • DISCLAIMER | SHE DIDN’...
WARNING: Before you and your family head to any hot springs, be sure to look up reviews to see if it is "clothing optional” or not. Many hot springs that we have traveled by have had really intense reviews regarding this topic, so just be aware and do your research!
All of the pools have varying temperatures, so it is easy to find one that suits you and is so nice to move around if you get too hot or too cold. We do recommend bringing water shoes as the rocks are hard on your feet!
We thought we would walk down with our stuff and check out the waterfalls below, but we had no idea the magic that was awaiting us! Behind the waterfall was a cave with a natural made hot-tub! We had to keep pinching ourselves because the whole experience felt like a dream.
There are many moments over the last 6 years where we have looked at each other and said, “This is why we chose this life.” Sitting in that pool, in a cave, under a waterfall was the moment that has topped them all. Don’t wait to start living your life. It may not look anything like what we are doing, but take the leap and find YOUR Someday right now. You will NEVER regret it.
Stay tuned for next week as we head to surprise the girls’ friends in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho! Be sure to like and subscribe and click on the bell icon for notifications when we release new videos!
Don’t wait to live your life, find your 🔆SOMEDAY🔆 now!

I enjoyed the video, I live in Idaho and my son has a cabin on the Salmon River between Stanley and Challis. Several hot springs in the Stanley area.... and no, I have never seen anyone naked at any of them. Glad you like Idaho, it is a beautiful place.
Thank you ! I bet that’s an awesome cabin to visit! Good to hear about the hot springs in that area , thank you !
I guess you haven't been to all of them. I was once greeted by the sight of people making the beast with two backs at one of them. LOL!
Goldbug is a true A+ hot springs. The best "free in the wilderness" hot springs there is. Goldbug has so really hot pools, like way to hot. The main pool, is so perfect, hot springs natural water fall, so relaxing. Nice you guys had it to yourselves.
What a beautiful hotspring spot. Idaho does have some hidden gems!
Idaho never ceases to amazing us! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Right before you said “water shoes” I was thinking I could never walk on all of those rocks without water shoes. I cannot be trusted not to hurt myself 🥴 I cannot believe that hot waterfall & cave. That was like a tropical adventure without the tropics. So awesome!
Definitely wish we had brought the water shoes but we will be ready next time! It was seriously magical to find the tropics in Idaho!
Good to see you having fun at the hot springs
Something we will never forget! Thanks for watching!
This is one of the most awesome videos I have ever seen. It just doesn't get more spectacular than this. Idaho is on the bucket list. You don't need to get into a beauty contest with Lilly OR Layla OR Jess.
Really hope you are all to get there SOMEDAY soon! Idaho is amazing! And you are definitely right about the beauty contest!
The snap shot in the cave is the perfect memory
WOW!! So glad y'all got to experience that!
We are so grateful for that day, too! And so glad that we were able to share it with you! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Such a spectacular location. Our country has so much to offer and it seems like you are really finding some outstanding locations. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures.
People ask us regularly if we have see everything already and we feel like we haven't even touched the surface! it truly is an incredible country and we can't wait to see so much more! Thank YOU for joining us and taking the time to comment!
That spring was incredible. Way over the top. Gorgeous scenery; you captured the beauty of this magical place.
It was beyond what we could have imagined. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment!
This is what family a life is all about!!
Thank you, sir 🙏
Beautiful! I will never get there so thanks for taking me along with you. I only wish Ken Burns would pop up out of the water with one of his wonderful descriptions of the site. You all are so blessed to have the opportunity to venture the way you do. I love you family, from making donuts to climbing a mountain to hot springs! ❤
Jess has made that comment many times, that she wishes she had the poetic words of Ken Burns for some of the places we visit! We are so grateful to have you along with us on our journey and to be able to show you these places that have had such an impact on us as a family!
Loved the video! Thanks for taking us along!❤❤
What a breathtakingly magical adventure. Thanks for sharing it with us. The audio and video were great!
Very well said. It was hard to put into words and capture the way we wanted. So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for joining us!
Watching the hike and Lagoon Cave scene I felt your excitement! I had goose bumps that wouldn’t go away as you continued to try and explain your feelings!! Thank you .
We had to keep pinching ourselves. Like there was no way that place could exist! It was absolutely amazing!
Amazing! Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching 🙌
Absolutely magical! Reminded me of Goonies in there. Definitely a bucket list item for me now.
Audio was great! Views were amazing! The secret lagoon was awesome! Your adventures rock! Thanks for sharing! 💛
So glad you enjoyed this one! It is an adventure that we will never forget!
Thank you for your kind words about the video! It's great to hear that you enjoyed the audio and the amazing views. The secret lagoon sounds truly awesome! Outdoor adventures like these are what make life memorable. By the way, if you're looking for reliable power solutions during your camping trips, I highly recommend checking out the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series. It's a versatile powerhouse that offers massive capacity, powerful output, and fast recharging. It's perfect for keeping your devices and appliances running during your outdoor adventures. Happy camping!
@@user-hh6ex9md4w I appreciate the power recommendation! We actually have a full Solar install with 420 ah of Lion batteries . So we didn’t actually need any power, but it was all they had available, we just dumped on our way out😃
That was so Awesome. I've been trying to find a work camp host job in Montana around the Tetons with no luck yet. But I think y'all have shown me how beautiful Idaho is. So I'm now looking for next year when there's no snow/ ice time of year. 😊❤
Yes Idaho is amazing, don’t miss the Stanley area in your searches 😃
What an amazing hike and the cave was beautiful.
Hard to put into words how amazing! Thanks for watching!
What a fantastic video! The hot springs were the ultimate. People that live in Idaho don’t even know about this gem! Thanks for sharing your life with us!
Idaho has so much to offer! We feel like we haven't even skimmed the surface! Thanks so much for watching!
What a fantastic place! Thanks for taking us there. I drove 93 down from Missoula and off to Arco this summer. I had planned to go to Stanley Lake (thanks to one of your videos) and dry camp for a week in the area and continue to Craters of the Moon, but 100+ temps squashed that plan! Headed to Yellowstone early.....
So sorry that you missed Stanley this year, but you made a good call! Hoping you are able to get back soon as Stanley is a gem for sure! Thanks so much for joining us!
It's absolutely stunning. Beautifully magnificent views.
It was hard to express our feelings about it in the moment. It was surreal!
Thanks for sharing more of our Idaho home
What a beautiful experience ! Thanks for such a great video !!
It was unreal! Thank YOU for joining us on our adventures!
Absolutely magical. What a memory. We are traveling to Idaho next fall. Can't wait!
Pure magic! Thank you so much for watching!

Awesome adventure we can't wait to explore Idaho. Excited for our new gear. Thanks for taking us along.
So excited for you to experience it for yourself! And thank you so much for ordering and sharing our message that It's Better Outside!
Awesome video and hike. What wonderful memories you’re making for your family. Thank you for sharing with the TH-cam family.
We are so grateful to have been able to do this with the girls for so long and to still be finding amazing places and making these memories with them. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
That was amazing!!!
Salmon is my hometown. Challis is my grandmother's and my parents grew up in Leadore. I've been to Challis Hot Springs and some on the river but never made the climb to Gold Bug even though I worked in Elk Bend for the water company. So many hot springs in Idaho. There are several along the river that only locals know. I've been in one on the river below Corn Creek while on a jet boat trip down river. My family's ranch in Leadore has a warm springs that was lined with wood back in the 40s, then mudded in over the years until my cousin installed an in ground pool on the ranch. It was a local bathing hole in the 40s - 50s but it's private now. My husband was an EMT while we lived in Salmon. He carried two patients down from that warm springs - not an easy task. One was a young girl who didn't bring food and water and the other was an older man suffering a heart episode. Thanks for the close up view.
WOW! Thank you so much for sharing your history there! WE love getting to meet locals and hearing about the locations we get to visit! Sounds like your husband is a hero! Please thank him for his service as an EMT! And thanks for watching!
Great episode!
WOW! It was like a movie set!
It seriously didn't feel real!
Wow! The hot springs were to cool!
They were unreal! Thanks for joining us!
The Hot Springs Cave was fantastic!
It was seriously unreal! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Just added this trip to my bucket list! Amazing!
It should be on everyone's! It was absolutely amazing!
Idaho. On our west coast trip my bride said she wanted to go thru Idaho. My response was, and I quote. " Who wants to go thru Idaho, it is just flat land and a bunch of potatoes". Boy was I wrong again. After watching several full time RV's videos there. This has become one for our bucket list items. I am only 2 minutes into the video. Can not wait to see what Corey videos on this episode. He is the king ( Ansel Adams ) of RV videos. Safe travels !!!!
P.S. : LOVE the channel !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Idaho continually blows us away! So glad that you guys plan on visiting soon! Really hope you enjoyed the rest of the video! Thank you for joining us on our journey and for your very kind words!
Wow! Those hot springs, what an incredible find! It truly look’s man made! Another awesome video!
It really felt fake, but it was right there in front of us. The girls kept saying this isn't real! Thanks for joining us!
Yes another great video love the hot springs from the mountains so awesome 👏🫵🏼🙏🏼🍺🇺🇸🍺
We seriously couldn't believe our eyes! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
That is so cool.
It's easy to understand your excitement about the hot springs....that was simply amazing. A highlight of any day hike...the pools were so incredibly beautiful that they would seem fake. Quite a day.
We honestly kept pinching ourselves. It was that incredible! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
Great video!!!!!
We almost stayed at Elk Bend in 2022 since it was a Harvest Host. This was our first trip out west as first time RVers. Decided to skip the winding road and take I-15 to Idaho Falls to be safe. We will have to stop there next time around.
Really hope you get to see it SOMEDAY! The drive was amazing and the hot springs was indescribable!
Wow! That place is epic! Thank you for sharing your experience.
Idaho hot springs are the best. I hiked and relaxed in one North of Missoula in the winter using crampons. Thanks for sharing
Wow, that is quite the find!
Just more proof that It’s better outside! You guys rock!! Loved this adventure!
You got that right! 🙌 This one is the best proof we have! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
That place was Amazingly Incredible!!! I loved the flowing water, waterfalls, and the fact that it was hot water. Crazy!!!!
Spectacular 😮
It left us speechless! Thanks for watching!
magical
Not a bette way to describe this place!
Enjoyed the video and YA'LL BE SAFE OUT THERE!
Thanks so much for joining us! Really glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome episode! Idaho rocks. Sunglasses vote: Lily! How fun in the hot cave with filtered sunlight and no other peeps! Happy trails ❤❤❤
It totally does and the girls will always beat me! 😂 We couldn't believe that we got it all to ourselves for so long!
Very cool ! The spring and cave look almost tropical. I don’t think I’d ever get out of that cave ! We love your adventures !!!
It was so surreal. To see tropics in Idaho! It was really hard to leave!
Great video, that water cave was amazing
One of your best finds! I’m totally going there!
We completely agree! Thanks for being here with us, Andrea!
Great video!! Those hot springs look amazing!!!
It was one of the coolest things we have ever seen! We were so excited to share it with you guys!
@@FindingOurSomeday it looked like it. Seems like Idaho is a well kept secret!!!
You really do find some awesome places.
Thank you 😊 So many amazing places in this country!
Beautiful hot springs and amazing hike! The trees in your site are black locusts, they have beautiful white flowers that hang like grape bunches in the spring. They smell AMAZING! Also Lily’s fuzzy leaves are Mullein, they are such a great medicinal plant. You can make a salve or steep them in a hot water for a tea, so great for coughs. Love, love y’all’s videos!
Another great video. That was the coolest hot spring I’ve ever seen! 😳
Same for us and our bar was set pretty high! It was one of the coolest things we have ever done!
That's a cool place. Good find. Seems to be well worth the climb. When you first pointed at the RV, I didn't see the mud. What I thought I saw was a dent.
Just a little bit of mud 😂 no dents 😰
Tuna 400 degrees and 3 minutes on each side , has to be rare in the middle, WE have it all the time, Need a little dipping sauce from the marinade the tuna goes in first, Everyone likes it! Beautiful part of our world. You guys are Awesome
Tuna cooked well is the best! Thanks so much for joining us and taking the time to comment! 🙌
Amazing love it can’t wait to start out getting out camping in 2024
WOW !!!! You and your family get to enjoy more of America in 1 year than most of us get to see in a lifetime. Idaho ? A hidden gem ?
We are so grateful for the years that we have gotten to travel with our girls before they head off to start lives of their own. And Idaho never ceases to surprise us! Thanks for watching!
Amazing place, great video.

I had never thought of that fact about hot springs!Thanks for the tip to check the reviews. That spring was beautiful! We love our Black Stone Grill. The fish looked really good. - Michelle
You have such a pretty family!
You guys made an awesome video adventure!! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed my home state and close to my hometown! It is now snowy and VERY cold. :)
We absolutely LOVE your home state and can't wait to get back to see more! We will wait until the warmer months though! 😉 Stay warm over there!
You do Cory! 100%
Lived in Idaho for about 40 years. There are a lot of hot springs that are totally natural, no development at all. They are the best. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Thanks for watching! We loved our time in Idaho sounds like an amazing 40 years!
Breathtaking views! I hope that I get the nerve to do something so amazing in the very near future!
You can totally do it! And it will be worth every step to get there! 💪
An Oasis, in the mountains, how beautiful this area is Thanks for taking us fans along for the adventure!! I have to say ..how nice to see such a loving kind family. This strikes me as I see this on all your shows❤😅😅
It truly was an oasis. It felt fake. Really glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for joining us. We always hope that people see the love we have for each other in our videos and it is good to hear that it is coming through.
Ok guys that entire place seemed so unreal. Like Avatar kinda stuff. But what made me literally laugh out loud were the blurry spots in the intro. You guys are so awesome. Great job with the drone work Corey ! Oh and Lilly you need to design a “Stunning” logo for Mom’s favorite descriptive word. I use it all the time. Haha. Safe Travels amigos 👊
You are my favorite travel channel. Simply amazing video quality and wholesome family content.
Actually I think it’s just a water drop on the go pro🤣🤣🤣. I totally thought you threw in a funny easter egg with blurred spots. I can’t stop laughing
It for sure had an Avatar feel to it! WE should have Lil design something with stunning on it! 😂 Thanks so much for watching and yes the blurry moment were water drops on the GoPro! IT was the only way to capture that incredible place!
