A little Urban Exploration?

Byron Hot Springs

I am not exactly someone who will usually cross the "do not enter" sign, but I had heard a lot of stories about the Byron Hot Springs and really wanted to check it out.  It has seen better days. Today it is a hotspot for graffiti.

If you do visit, you will find a pretty easy gate to cross and then a walk of about a mile down a road that approaches the main site. 

Road just above the main building is surrounded by abandoned cars. Some maintained by the site caretaker

The inside is pretty much gutted and you will not find a lot in the way of furniture or fixtures, but it is still one of the most famous abandoned buildings in the area.

When I visited it was well over 100 degrees outside and I didn't stay very long, which was probably a good thing. I have read that the site has a caretaker with a shotgun and he isn't afraid to point it at you.  You may also want to look out for homeless people or just teens hanging out.

My posted photo set from the Byron Hot Springs

Another great set of photos from the Hot Springs come from Scott Heafner but he took his shots a few years earlier.

Visit at your own risk.
