We finally reached Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs (www.strawberryhotsprings.com) in mid afternoon.

Entrance Fee is USD$10 per adult.

There are 3 pools, one very hot, one hot and one cold. The trick is to get into the hot pool first and then to the hotter one. Its just wonderful to soak in the hot pool with steam raising all over and look at the snow clad scenery around us.

Liang seems tired from the long drive and waiting in line to change into bathers at the little tent in the park. Notice the hot water flowing down from the mountains just behind him. Its STEAMING.. oh.. ohhhh...

After an hour or so of soaking, we left and again, the road back to the town of Steamboat Spring is really pleasing to the eye.
