I started the day at Cisco Beach Campground. I ended the day at Portneuf Bend Campground.

Here is a short description of the day:

Lava Hot Springs
Montpelier, overpriced campground, but great soak into the evening

Here is a short description of the evening:

I had an initial bad impression because not only do I not get a shower for $24, I don't even get a flush toilet! There is water for RV hookup, but no indoor plumbing, just a clean, unisex outhouse. The lady makes the very good point that everyone is here for the hot springs, and they have showers.

On the other hand I am in a nice, grassy, spot a three minute drive (or a long walk) from the Lava Hot Springs pools. So all in all, pretty good.

There are some heavily used, long haul train tracks a few hundred yards away that shake the earth a couple of times in the night.

Story for today: Southern Idaho has Hot Springs.
