CONUNDRUM HOT SPRINGS, CO

From: richard@West.Sun.COM (Richard M. Mathews)

  CONUNDRUM HOT SPRINGS, south of Aspen, Colorado, is described by one
  rec.nude submitter as one of mother nature's greatest spots and by another
  as being as close to paradise as you can get.  There are 2 pools surrounded
  by spectacular scenery.  The easiest trail begins about 1 mile south of
  Aspen.  You then have to hike about 8 miles.  The trail head is at 8500
  ft., and the hot springs are at 11,500; so a good sunscreen is a must.
  Totally undeveloped, at night you can not see a man made light out side
  of the camp fires around the spring.  A park ranger spends the summer
  at the spring.  You will met a nice range of people, doctors, lawers,
  runners, rich & poor but all friendly.  It is recommend that you plan
  to spend a couple of days.  There is a cool mountain stream that flows
  down each side of the spring.  Obtain directions and and information
  about conditions from the White River National Forest ranger station.
