The Geological Wonders: Hot Springs & Geysers Go Down Go Back
Redstone Hot Springs, Colorado
Also called by some Penny Hot Springs, this is a primitive hot springs pool located on Highway 133 and adjacent to the Crystal River just past Carbondale, about forty-five minutes from Aspen.
The pool is sectioned off with large rocks to keep the cold water from coming in. Natural hot mineral water feeds the pool, which is about 20 feet across and 2 feet deep. It holds maybe ten people comfortably. Temperatures vary, and can be adjusted by adjusting the rock wall.
Redstone hot springs can be inaccessible at time due to high river waters. Clothing is officially required.
