ayearoferewhon: Once upon a time at Saline Valley - some comments from the FB: “Don and Edith had been visiting the Springs since the 40’s. Oldest timers I knew of.” “That’s Don and Edith in the tub, It looks like the Sun Rise pool before all the shrubs grew around it. Many of us helped to build all the pools. Wasn’t just a single person. Big Al and I hauled in concrete. Pipes from the old Tum-co mine (Squaw Rock) area mine across the Valley with Al’s jeep back before some of you were born. The lower pool by the camp fire. Big Al and I dug it for a trash fire pit that was cleaned out and moved over by the real old landing strip to the North and we filled it as a deep mud hole and waited for it to settle and slowly get in. Was a mess! but heck it was wet and warm. Eventual folks started working it over and again Big Al and I hauled in more concrete for the what ya see today. Again, it has changed many faces over the years.” “Great shot and great Trail90 in the background. We still ride those bikes from pool to pool today” -- source link
