First Timer who had a blast

Had a small nakation a few months ago in Southwest Colorado. Feb 25-28. Tried both Orvis (25-26)and Valley View Hot Springs While skiing in Telluride. Orvis Was great! stayed for two days, one night in the Americana Room. I’m 39M married but my wife doesnt hit the hot springs with me so my friends and I like to meet other great people. Orvis was no different. Everyone was fun, chatty in the lobster pot and smokers pool. Great vibes. Naked or non naked, very comfortable situation. Lots of beautiful people. All sizes, All ages.

I met a few friends that I’d like to reconnect with. Chrissy from Montrose. Beautiful blonde who wore the beanie when the temp dropped. DM me and ill let you know when we re back out there.

Valley view was a little less social. Did meet a few nice couples in the main hot spring but when we made the hike up to the lookout pools, bad vibes from a male Couple who didn’t like others around. Rest Of the place was pretty empty for a beautiful Thursday afternoon. Could’ve been just a bad day.

Anyway, Orvis is now my favorite place on earth. I plan to do Orvis again soon but I also want to try VV/OLT again because the consensus from others was we may have just hit it on a bad day. Any recommendations on best times to visit both, post a reply? A great Gem you all have!
