A sodium-calcium chloride spring emerging hot at 52.4 °C. With roughly 16,270 mg/kg of dissolved solids it is richly mineralized and hypertonic, leaving a salty mineral film on the skin that holds in warmth well after the bath. The water is alkaline on the pH scale, so it feels soft despite the salt.

The water is clear, very salty, with a thick feel. Temperature, 42. Breathing is fine. The water is interesting, but it feels like more context is needed to fully get into this place. 12.11.2024
