Gold Strike Hot Springs, an Amazing Local Secret Near Las Vegas

I love your videos - there's so much great content and I love how you highlight the technical aspects of the hike. Going to try this trail in the next few weeks!

I think you'd also love
Cathedral Rock (the whole trail is under snow right now but doable in microspikes - I think it'd be a lot easier once the snow has melted
Red Rock - Guardian Angel Pass
Red Rock - Turtlehead Peak

Happy hiking!

Thank you for this! Your voice is a perfect narration voice

nice channel!!

Hi there, i watched this video going into the canyon, but was wondering if you have the video how to maneuver the climb out? Want to see how it's done
Thanks!

Warning: These warm water pools often harbor those dangerous brain eating Amoebas.

Las Vegas is America's playground.

Just make SURE to check the weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did this hike mid-December last year.
LOVED it.
The springs were not super hot, only warm.
While more difficult than a walk in the park (or down a trail), I think most people in decent shape should be able to do it.

Great coverage of the trail!

Very nice video but not for me.... to challenging.....scary....

Thank you for all the details

In the mid 70s there was a old smashed trans am where the parking lot was and one metal cable 1/2 way down that was it great place to get stoned only one or two people ever there party all night then go back early in morning - the good news or days😂

I think you can get here by kayak/canoe as well. And I would just wear water shoes the entire hike personally. Thanks for the detailed video!

Dropped of the Japanese exchange student at the top of the trailhead. Met he at the river with my boat. Only way to hike it.

Harder hiking back than going there.

Been to that hot springs a few times. Not sure the one in video is same one since we only had 1 spot that needed a rope to get to it. Was only rope needed to get to the hot springs.

Also, my hike down was back in 2005. There were not nearly that many ropes but there were the arrows thank God. Hiked down at 1 am. Do not recommend.

I had a wild night at these hot springs long ago. We didn’t know wed end up there and a friend wore platform flip flops. She was having an anxiety attack so i had to give her my Adidas shell toes. This was after someone stole my pants i laid on a Boulder before getting in the springs. So angry. Some nice guy gave me a spare pair of shorts to hike back up. So there i was— it was sunrise now— we were down there all night wearing a tank top, mens super baggy shorts and platform flip flops.

I remember seeing airplane debris walking back up? Did i imagine this or getting it mixed up w another adventure?

Looks like a fun hike. Two things - you keep banging your head on overhanging rocks because you wear baseball caps - not good for hiking! Try wearing them back to front. 2. You end up in a remote spot with hot springs and a lovely river - so what's with swimming in clothes? Crazy! You Americans sure have body issues! 😂

Did this trail solo again and I had no problems

We are definitely hiking here. Great video guys

I'm so glad you made this video...cause nope I'm good 😂

Cool video, well done thanks for sharing...

Whoever put the arrows on the rocks should be disemboweled! LNT!!!

He talks too much.

I can't wait to move to las vegas and go on a hike! Never been on one before.

Nice !!
Thank you for sharing 🥾🥾

Thanks for showing the full trail. How long did it take for you guys to go all the way down? Thanks

I guess I don't have to say that this area is not handicapped assessable. Handicapped Americans pay their fair share of taxes and serve their country, but don't get to enjoy a large part of it.

Well done on this!

Snowflakes are now apparently common in NV. I carried my laundry in a backpack to wash at Goldstrike back in 2007... with only 2 ropes.

I love this hike. If you go up the Colorado a little bit there is a little hot cave. I haven't been there for 15 years or so. First time I went was in the mid 90s. There was maybe enough parking for a half dozen cars but that was plenty. One time coming back up the canyon there was a couple in one of the pools and you could tell they were lacking clothing so we tried to give them some privacy by trying to go wide of the pool but we just ended up high on the side of the canyon with a birds eye view of the action.

Very nice video thanks for all the information and tips

I had the rope on #8 break on a group ahead and combined with the water it was a tough one getting back up I almost fell

Great job and thank you

Rope #9 broke on my way up with a group ahead of me. The water made it extra sketchy

Nevada is possibly the most underrated state.. everyone thinks it's just all desert..when in fact it's quite diverse..and 63 per cent basically unspoiled BLM land..

very helpful video, great work!

Fantastic video! I've been wanting to do this hike, so thank you for the informative guide - this was awesome. How long did it take to get to the river?

Great hike! I had no idea, and to be able to hike all the way to the CO river is really awesome! Thank you!

This canyon has changed so much from flash flooding over the years. Growing up in Vegas in the '60's-'70's we used to hike to all the hot springs and this one used to be much easier and hardly anyone knew it was there. No parking lot, no signs, no ropes.

You're a boss for putting this together. Definitely hitting this hike on my next trip to vegas! Cheers

Will tell you from experience, don't do it in hot temps. If u partake in a hot springs soak you will be a bit dehydrated on the trek back out. In hot temps this gets exponentially hotter on the way out. Have plenty of water And Salt. Why a couple died on the way out with water. I know hikers who have been carried out do to heat exhaustion. Its a fun hike if you've had a few hikes under your belt. It can b3 too much for first or casual hikers. Also one last surprise to watch for is th3 naked guy who hangs out collecting trash. Wha.... 🤣

Such a cool hike!

We are planning our cross country! Great information about this hike!

Wow! Gorgeous hike! Definitely one to not take the dog on. Thanks for mentioning that - important to good pet parents. I think I would be stopping at rope #3 - and would never want to leave that hot spring - ha ha!

Did this yesterday. Got a rope burn on the second rope so gloves are helpful. We started around 3 and by the time we got back to the car around 7, it was dark out. Def a fun and challenging hike!

I'm planning to do this trail for sure when I'm in the area. Thanks for heads up. 👍🙂
