Still swooning over this sauna cave at...

📍 Gold Strike Hot Springs, near the base of the Hoover Dam

Fun facts about this sauna cave ⬇️

Did you know that workers drilled this tunnel during construction of the Hoover Dam? At about 50 feet into drilling, they tapped into a natural hot spring that was so hot that they couldnt continue drilling any further. Later, this tunnel was transformed into a bearable hot spring! 

But be warned of the following regarding this sauna cave:

💦  It is not for the claustrophobic 😬

💦  Bring water shoes and a light.

💦  It gets HOT at the end of the cave and you will sweat
 So don't stay too long.

💦  Don't let the water get into your nose or mouth. 

💦  This entire hike is closed during the summer months. 

💦  It is a challenging hike with ropes for bouldering to get down into the canyon. [check out my previous #reel for the journey to get here!]

Happy adventuring!
