Is there a Santa Rita Hots Springs in BCS

I saw a reference in an overlander's blog to visiting Santa Rita Hot Springs. If i recall correctly, they might have been killing a few days before catching the ferry to the main land.

Can't pull anything from the search function. Seems like I have come across some tidal hot springs somewhere on the southern peninsula in my research I can probably pull up again, but nothing called Santa Rita Hot Springs

Does that name ring any bells?

And there are references to a Santa Rita Hot Springs in Canyon San Jorge (Sierra de la Laguna) here:

2003: see Hot springs of El Chorro (Agua Caliente) and Santa Rita (San Jorje) west of Santiago. Hwy. 1 is on the right side.


In 1930, see Agua Caliente Hot Springs:



In 1962:

If anyone has photos they want to share, but haven't mastered the process, joined Photobucket, or figured the easy upload sizer on Photobucket to fit photos on Nomad, I am happy to help. Email them to me with any captions you want to describe the photos.
