View of the high desert from Quartzite Mountain.

The trailhead located at the edge of Deep Creek Hot Springs Campground. The hike quickly begins descending into the arid landscape.
The hardpacked dirt trail is almost completely exposed and descends about 900' in elevation over the 1.75 mile hike to the hot springs pools.
Turquoise/blue paint blazes help mark the route, though hikers should definitely take a photo of the map at the trailhead as navigation can be a bit confusing with several unsigned forks along the way.
First view of Deep Creek - the trail descends toward the hot springs pool located toward the right of the bend.
Wildflowers along the trail.
