June 2022 NV/OR/CA Expedition Part 12 of 17
Date of adventure: 6/13-6/14/22
Camping at an AMAZING hot spring complex in the middle of nowhere -- with wild horses, colorful mineral formations, beautiful white mud and spectacular water temperature and clarity. The only downside? There was nowhere to soak!
But...guess what? This place was so beautiful, it almost didn't matter. Almost!

You realize - ‘abstinence builds ‘resistance 🥊🥊🤣
Omg. I hope the mud isn't radioactive either ...lol😂😂😂👍👍👍
Get a 63” foldable dog pool ($65), a 12v pump, and 2 fabric hoses (input and output from pump), set up your private hot tub.
What a great idea, and a foldable bathtub for singles.
Get a man with working tools and save $65 plus.
That's a great idea
Get a laser thermometer
Harbor Freight sells them
They also sell them on eBay and Amazon
By getting two of those 25 ft fabric hoses that shrink down and are really lightweight and a 12 volt Harbor Freight pump that either has the standard garden hose fittings or even just has smooth outlets and get hose clamps or even zip ties
You could even go to Lowe's or home Depot and pick up 50 ft of that bulk plastic hose they sell on the big rolls and use that to pump the water out of the spring and into one of those collapsible pools
I used to be a fireman years ago before my heart gave out and we had lightweight drafting pools that were made of fabric that we would use when we had a fire where there were no hydrants and tankers would go to the nearest pond or river and suck a tanker full of water and the back of the tanker had a emergency release lever with a chute and we would back up to the drafting pool and pull the lever and the entire tanker would empty into the pool in a matter of seconds.
We would have a constant convoy of tankers coming dropping water into the drafting pool and we would have one of the tankers drawing out of the pool to supply the other tankers and engines with the hoses that were working the fire.
I don't remember how much one of these pools cost but they folded up easily and they did not take up much space and they were very durable and they had a drain on the bottom that you could pull that would empty the pool very quickly.
During the summer especially 4th of July and Labor Day we would set up these pools and put floaty lawn furniture in them and have a big barbecue for 4th of July and a giant clam steam for Labor Day.
I miss those days
You're so lucky to be healthy and be able to go and visit all these places
I used to get off work at 6:00 a.m. and go on adventures all day long and come home around 8:00 p.m. just enough time to take a shower and head back to work
I spent so much time in the Adirondacks and the Catskills and the helderberg's and the schoharie Valley and the Southern tier of New York State
The fall colors in the schoharie Valley are so beautiful and driving in the winter on I-88 with the snow reflecting off the mountains is so pretty
Now I'm stuck in bed all the time and sick and in pain and I know I'll never be able to go on any trips again.
I can't even get out of bed most days to take a shower because the pain is so bad
I tell everyone don't put off anything
Go and do whatever it is you want to do while you still can
Kizen LP300 non contact laser thermometer is on sale for 19.99 on Amazon
Walmart has one for 25.00 as does Harbor Freight
The Amazon one goes up to 1200 C
I always forget that there are active magma Chambers underneath the entire Western half of the United States
It's also a really good idea to buy a toxic gas detector that they use in mining
There are lots of odorless toxic gases that come out from Hot springs and from fishers in the ground
Not just carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide but hydrogen sulfide and methane and others
When I used to go spelunking I used to see people I was with using the cigarette lighter test which is good for detecting CO or CO2, but it's a really bad idea to do it because if you hit a pocket of methane or sulfur that will be all she wrote for you and your party
I've been giving away a lot of equipment that I can't use anymore and I have a Motorola Astro Spectra 120 watt VHF mobile two-way radio with the 100 w siren amplifier and the 100 watt PA siren speaker as well as the control head and antenna and all of the cabling.
I paid $800 for it back when I was in the fire department.
It would make a great ham radio base unit or repeater for a ham radio club.
If there are any law enforcement officers or paramedics or firemen who are looking for a radio for their personal VEHICLE, make me an offer.
It is very heavy and will require three flat rate large USPS shipping boxes. Approximately $70 for shipping.
I don't have the programming cable or the RSS to program it but the cable is a simple five wire 25 pin patch cable that can be easily soldered together and the software is available on several amateur radio groups.
When I had it in my vehicle I had a quarter wave VHF antenna on the trunk and from the hill outside Troy New York I was able to communicate with the repeaters in Plattsburgh and with the repeaters in Kingston and Scoharie and VT, MA , CT, the Catskills the Adirondacks and from Thatcher Park on top of the helderberg escarpment just outside Albany New York I was able to talk with ham radio operators in New York City and New Jersey
Motorola really makes radios that last.
I would like someone who wouldn't normally get the chance to own one of these to get it.
I have a bunch of 800 band handheld radios and a 6 bay charger.
They needs new antennas and batteries and programming.
I would give these to anyone who will pay for the shipping.
I am in eastern Pennsylvania near Allentown. If you want to pick them up you can have them for free.
That's a good idea and it's funny too. Lol
Be careful in those places, Hussy. The ground can collapse and precipitate you into boiling water and mud.
Yup. Ghandi. Oh. And he passed the test. Your frustration is real. Sorry for it but as usual loved the honesty.
Hello Kindcounselor👋
@@jamesroland5186 Hello James!
@@kindcounselor how are you doing today
That's a PVC 1/4-turn valve with the ears broken off... probably due to mineral deposits. Ace hardware has some nice strap wrenches (sizes small to large). Probably ought to have one in your tool kit anyway. Be careful of wilderness claw foot tubs...the rim is a favorite hiding place for Black Widows.
I apologize for laughin my ass off at yer frustration🤣
Thank you for the sexiest hot spring tour ever.
Wonder Hussey that wasn’t a valve that was just a cap and they probably glued on this was a great video those were beautiful Hot Springs and you always make it funny to watch you’ve got such a great sense of humor and imagination that imagination runs away with you it just makes me laugh like hell thank you for another great video from the old retired guy👍👨🏻🦳👍
My husband and I watch your videos all the time. You are fun and down to earth. Wondering why you didn’t have your heat gun to show the temp of the water?
magic beans are messing her up
Beautiful hot springs, beautiful person. Love ya WH. Thank you for this trip.
Yep
Oh, yer fulla prunes, Sarah. You need "purifying" like I need a hernia😆. Ummm, wait...that thought about the shape of that pool...maybe ya need a tiny bit of purifying😉. But don't
get crazy. Wow! A big ol' pair of Channel Lock pliers would help with that valve. It irks me a bit to see The Queen of Hot Soaks cheated out of a good dunk. But, you are far from done
exploring, so you'll end up finding plenty more places to enjoy. Guaranteed, I'll be watching. Thanks for sharing your hard work with us, Darlin'. And much love to you and yours.
As an orchardist most of my valves look like that. Gotta carry a pair of channel lock wrenches with you all the time!!!
Is an orchardist someone who tends to orchards ? Like the ones in Grapes of Wrath
@@DClean yup. 4th generation pear apple cherrys and apricot farmer-orchardist. Kinda sort of.
Your never alone, you have all these people, that Im sure , Love you and your Awesome Adventures. You have made me laugh through some pretty tough times. Hopefully not so creepy, ........Scott. HA!
Ditto that. We all are your friends and dare say kinda family. Enjoy all you do.
You're in an unusual mood today. Seeing phallic formations and "that's what she said!" I like it.
Pliers that have rubber coated handles like the ones you had in that kit can be used to gain leverage over a sticky valve...just open them up, put the rubber handles around the valve head, grab with both hands and twist. And the channel you were referring to is "Cabinland"...
Well if you take a Wonderhussy and a Wondepeenas. The world would know no boundaries !
If our paths were to cross camping, just the by your videos alone I can tell you’d be awesome to hang with trading all kinds of camp travel stories. Your videos are very entertaining, great job.
Your ‘sincerity’ is most important 🈵㊗️🈴
🎶The Yellerstone of Nevada
🎶The Gray clay country
🎶The heart is warm ❤
🎶But not as hot as the water.

“My soak needs purifying “😂🤣😂😇😅🥰😍😘🥰
that is beautiful country i never imagined so many hot spring or greenery there
The ‘colors’ make it all worthwhile 🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣🔴
Hi Wonderhussy, Ron Moore here. I love your adventures! You are such an honest person as well as entertaining. God Bless you in all that You do...
The clay is most likely kalinite. It's a common volcanic clay. Looks like you need to keep a large pair of channel locks in your travel kit. The mineral deposits have probably got the valve jammed up.
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING BY THE DRIP AND WOULD HAVE PUT A CLOTHES HANGER WIRE OR A STRONG STICK DOWN IN IT....I'D HAVE STILL GOTTEN IN ANYWAY CLEANING OUT ALL THE ALGAE I COULD & I'M SURPRISED SHE DIDNT!!
Hello Norm👋
Every once in awhile I feel the same way but as I get older the feeling becomes more frequent Nevada is so beautiful I wish I could see it in the flesh
That could have been one of those trick valves that you just push down on and then they turn pretty easy. In the future, get a pair of water pump pliers to supplement your tool kit.
my fav Channel Lock pliers!
Sometimes a man with a big tool is needed
THE PIPE WAS DRIPPING BUT JAMMED & NOT FLOWING 100%. SHE NEEDED A WIRE SENT DOWN IT TO UNDO THE MINERALS FOR IT TO FLOW. I'M SURPRISED SH DID FIGURE IT OUT.
You guys make a lot of sense. I could cry if it was that easy !!....so i could watch her soak and therefore feel like i soaked.
Chuck...chuck....chuck.
I just love your old time clever linguistics..
Hotter than the dickens...and all the rest, takes me back to being a little kid in the 70s and 80s listening to the adults.
You got’ a nice ‘natural bop’ to your walk 🛀🔭🛁🧽🧼
Thank you again for sharing your adventures with us 😊
aint she great
@@davidjackson7281 absolutely
Hello 👋 how are you doing
*If you have a clean tarp then you can take a bath anywhere!* Bring an inflatable inner tube and place the tarp over the middle. Or create the surround with a blanket or whatever is handy. Or use a natural depression on the ground -- a shovel would help.Once you find hot water, take a bucket on a rope, carefully bail out water onto the tarp. I used this for my kids in our backyard with the sprinkler running on hot days, lots of fun. 😊
Hello Butter👋
Where's your digital thermometer? We need some temperature readings for reference. Oh well, I guess since there was bubbling the temps were way above 100. Beautiful area which could be even better with another tank and a couple tubs! 😎
Hi, I watch but don't think I have commented. I love hot tub soaking. Tecopa, then over between Lone Pine and Bishop. We could probably get that tub working. It's a gift that comes from the mother and people should leave things better than found. Also the Corona, California hot springs and mud bathing. Yeah, gotta love it.
Thanks for the like
Hello Debra👋
Two things always make me smile and lift my mood, a Beatles tune and a Wonderhussy video. You are a wonder, Thank You!
Great location, love the mini giser. The hot tub was a real teaser. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventure with us today from Henrico County Virginia
Love all your enthusiasm 🟥🟧🟨⬜️⬛️🟪🟦🟩🟫
Lol. I seen those cabin's and they are awesome.
The only bad thing about watching a WH video is when its over. Love her videos!!
. If that tub was used lately, then it would be some what clean . So that's y the valve is stuck with built-up mineral deposits. Ha.Ha.Ha & nice video, We appreciate all ya give us. Ha.Ha.Ha
Sulk instead of soak...👍😆
23:00 good impression of Martin Short's Ed Grimley.
Have you ever thought of investing in a pair of channel locks?
that is definitely an amazing place! Too bad you couldn't soak anywhere. I was a bit nervous with you walking around though. It reminded me of the hot springs and geysers in Yellowstone and people have fallen in by walking in areas they thought were more solid than they were and fell in. So are you ever afraid of camping in such remote areas? I would be at night especially. Once dark hits, I'm in my RV. You made me laugh towards the end of this video. I have the same enthusiasm for hot springs as you do. Soaking in my hot tub in my back yard is the next best thing. I met you once a few years ago at the RTR at the music night around a campfire.
You need some kind of portable, folding bathtub and a hand pump to take advantage of those hot springs that don't have anywhere to soak.
I'm retired and if I knew the coordinates to this hot spring I would love to go out and repair it so people like you and me could go soak maybe someday you'll let us know exactly where it's at it looks like a cool spot wrong word cool a hotspot
Buy the book dude - Found in like 10 seconds.
@@Qwiv Awe, tell him where it is. LOL
@@rosie4runner965 ok
Old perv..... But does he have a big tool?
😄😄😄
Zagar and Williams, one of my favorite songs, along with Simply RED, Holding Back The Years!
Truly unbelievable ‘springs’ 🎭🎼🎨
Ohh wow what a beautiful spot! Amazing to see all those hot springs bubbling away, and the colors (bacteria) changing as the water cools down. And that little geyser was the cherry on top! Can image how frustrating it must have been for a for a hot spring enthusiast to be near natural hot water and not being able to soak in it. Would have loved a bird's eye view of the complex ;-)
Channel locks work well on these valves. What a great personality you have wonderhussy sorry you couldn't soak.
Wow Mother Nature is pretty amazing!!
Mother Nature is the best so make sure you don't vote republican because they could care less about it.
You need to wander the gem state. Hot spring heaven..
Whenever you do a hot spring video there s a lovely sparkle in your eyes 🤩😘
There is nothing and I mean nothing than gazing out at the beautiful magnificent dessert!!!!!
Sarah, another gem for the Nevada glory crown.
At 15:59 mins. There's a small fast creature white on top and black surrounds running out in that formation opening. Looks like a spider or a very stunt skank without a tail. If that is a spider it's at least 10 inches across.
Replayed several times, it's definitely a spider light Grey body black head. I would regret meeting its mother.
I SAW IT TO & THOUGHT IT WAS A GUINEA PIG - BUT WTH WOULD THAT BE DOING OUT THERE??
Sarah - funny thing is, I actually have the parts and adhesive in my BASEMENT... Easy FIX!
And nooo... I don't need "ANY"! LOL!

Thanks!
Best one yet Ms. Hussie
That’s a cap. I bet there’s a valve under those boards? Follow the plumbing 😂
And yes definitely remember Charlton Heston 👍🏻😊
Cute little geyser, shaped like a you-know-what (volcano). Beautiful blue pools, similar to some in Jellystone Park. Cooles Video.
I respect your integrity wonder hussy ... refusing to molest a hot spring.
Hey Huss!...you are adorbs 🥰 walking around your menagerie of hotsprings with a mud packed pretty face and USA sunglasses. 😁💗 Thanks again for another fun adventure packed 😳WonderHuss Wednesday. 😊👍
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
That mud is probably radio active, on the radio, on the radio !
Just moved from Phoenix and excited to visit the out doors of Las Vegas and Southern Nevada.
love the vids! keep them coming.
Yeah good times are best shared. Then I think nah... but you are still young and I know you probably have a wide selection. What a beautiful spot.💜
Hello Wonderhussy I am enjoying you videos of American culture very much I hope I can visit some day thank you
Such an interesting place!! Thank you!
A 5 gallon bucket and a kiddie pool are easy enough to carry. Good luck! 👍
You are the best. I would love to meet you. I left Maryland a month ago and trying to enjoy the USA just as much as you. I'm close to the lost coast... Your happy place... Should be there tomorrow... I hope it makes me as happy as you.
I think the Nevada tourism council should offer you a position. You have the knack for that sort of thing.
There is a hot spring, with a nice tub on top, them some caves down below. Take road through Austin in to Monitor Valley. And good camping area too.
Before that on highway 50 theres a highway to Gabbs tale that to got town called Ione, but may not be Gost town, but a Squatters town and a Bar thats open. On a 4 th of July the local buckaroos showed up with there Gitar and they know all the old songs. They didnt have hots on so faces were tan below there hats . Lots camping .
Beautiful , awesomeness
Rock on 🤘
Loved that teeny geyser/hot seep - way cool. Bummer. No place that was sufficiently cool to soak! Thanks WH!
Maybe you could get a little inflatable pool and a bucket to make at least a little mini soaker pool. You could waller around in the warm water that you are so very fond of.
Hello Suzanne 👋
Nevada is my favorite state by far I can’t wait till I’m living there, I’m the happiest out there in the desert
Somewhere in the middle of nowhere is somewhere to be 👍
"I hope this mud on my face isnt radioactive", hahaha
Awesome location...
clean the stock tank, get a 5 gallon bucket, it wouldnt take long to refill it enough to soak in as long as you are there, relax after your hard work. good video
i volunteer to be bucket boy
This is the most action I’ve had in months
ooops...that [Glenwood] is in Colorado, on what they call the western slope...it's majestic beyond words...you are within 100 miles of the Maroon Bells, Aspen, Snowmass, Marble,Steamboat Springs and on and on...I miss it dearly...had to come back for work and taking care of mom....I eventually ended up in Honduras...we have hot springs too....just haven't been to them yet
‘Mother Nature’ has to love you for your ‘genuine’ interest in her 🥊🥊🎭🔱🤣🌵
That place is awesome !! This is one of the best unspoiled hot spring's out there, seriously. Watch out WH, don't break through the crust and meet your demise by boiling to death !! The springs at the first location sort of had the same color as Diana's Punch Bowl, aqua blue. And WH couldn't resist to touch the giant phallic symbol....yikes !! Hey look, its the mime Robespierre again. this time in white face. walking on the high chaparral of Nevada !!
Just beautiful, to sleep there is like in paradise
Hello Veruc👋
A little band wrench like the ones they use to take oil filters off with would of come in handy to turn that valve on the stock tank. You don’t need a bunch of tools, you just need the right tools. As roadtrip warriors, we anticipate these things. You have to be smarter than the average bear, which you are. And even if you don’t have the right tools, necessity is the mother of invention, improvise and survive!
Amazing views
Did you forget to bring your shovel????? I've traveled the outback for 45 Yr's Plus and you can always find a way to drain off the too hot to soak water into another pool.
Happy Independence Day.🇺🇸
The few drinking water Sierra springs that I have dealt with and they are not filling the pipe. It is generally debris, twigs, leaves, mud blocking the inlet port at the water source. I kept waiting for you to walk along and trace the pipe up to the feeding source. As they once said in older aviation mechanic scenarios, "clogged carb jets". Gotta clean the jets to get it to run smoothly. 😵💫
Channel-locks Sarah. Chammel locks, fencing pliers and a long long pry bar can cure a lot of mechanical ills.
Enjoy watching
Wish I was there for many reasons. I do carry the tools you needed in my truck but at last I am close to NM in high desert AZ.
You should get a hold of me I used to build private Hot springs pump the water up build the tub build shade build privacy walls I think it would be a blast I'm always up in Utah and Nevada exploring just like you ghost towns and different sceneries
You know you can use the other end of the pliers as well in a pinch... Yes the handle side.
The pump don't work cuz the vandals took the handle.
Thank you! The sights the sounds the horses.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
I have been watching your videos for quite a while, and really enjoyed them, I also watch videos from Itchy Boots, she reminds me of you, only on a bigger scale , keep up the good work
I've watched ur vids over a few years, on and off and I'm compelled to say : this hot spring, with that one pool that was really bubbling and clear, is the BEST location and potential for a great minimal developed soak oasis ! Is it private land ?? Amazing ! I was waiting for you to cover your body in mud and do a reveal. 🤩😳😛
Blowup bathtub and good hand pump and you could take in the springs where ever you find them.
Hello again.
I'd go rompin' n pokin' around wit you wonderhuss. Strictly platonic natch! No rime of the ancient mariner hotsprings tho, wit nary a place to soak! Lol🤠
Beautiful landscape again, and the mustang herd was cool🐎and a little pony.
And the mud mask? Did it purify? Don't purify and cleanse your 'bad' parts, i love you jus the way u r!
