Mammoth Adventures
Sightseeing
This is a real gold rush era ghost town. The State of CA runs the Park and preserved all the buildings, so you can walk up and down the streets and look into them and take a virtual tour. Fascinating for history and Wild West buffs. About an hour's drive North from Mammoth. The dirt road to Bodie is closed during the Winter.

Crowley Hot Springs Nearby
Crowley Hot Spring
This spring, located about 14 miles south of Mammoth Lakes, has a large pool as well as a smaller tub. The pool generally hovers around 95 degrees while the tub generally stays at 105.
Location & Seasons: This tub is best visited in spring, summer, or fall, as winter snows may make the road impassable. To find the spring, head south of Mammoth on US-395 for 9 miles, then turn left on Benton Crossing Road. Follow this road for 3.1 miles. As you cross over a cattle guard, find a small dirt road on your right, turn here. Continue on this road for 1.2 miles to the parking lot.

Pulkey's Pool Hot Spring
The stunning mountain views from this cement tub are superb. It can seat about 8 people and it's easy to find.
Location and Seasons: Accessible any time of year. Follow the directions to Crowley Hot Springs, but instead of turning right after the cattle guard, continue down a small hill and turn left. The road will split after a quarter mile and take the right fork. You'll see logs that designate a parking area. Park here and walk the remaining couple hundred feet to the springs.
