Also called Pulky's Pool, Hill Top Hot Spring has the best view and is probably the easiest accessible hot spring in winter snow in the hot spring-rich valley just south of Mammoth Lakes. Like nearby Crab Cooker, Shepherd, and Crowley/Wild Willy's, Hill Top is popular and can be crowded. The Eastern Sierras create a gorgeous backdrop for the stone-and-cement tub that sits on a bluff rising above the boggy Alkali Lake.
The pool is about 2 feet deep and large enough to accommodate four to six people. The pool is clothing-optional, and don't be surprised if additional naked soakers drop in. Water flows in from the nearby source at over 100-106 degrees Fahrenheit though a valve on the warmer of two inflow pipes, so soakers can adjust the amount of hot water that pours into the tub.
A gravel road leads from paved Benton Crossing Rd to two parking areas (in winter the gate can be closed but it is still ok to walk in. The final 200 yards from the dirt parking area lead on a gravel and wooden plank trail to the low hill with the springs. It is built and maintained by volunteers. Do your part to keep it clean and carry out any trash you see. Camping at the springs is not permitted, though it is allowed on the nearby public land.
