This tucked-away hot spring was amazing for my sore back... now I'm split on sharing it.

I found this natural hot spring off a rough trail last month... it really helped ease some old hiking aches. On one hand, keeping it quiet means it stays clean and empty for when I need it... on the other, friends with similar pains could benefit from knowing. I remember a canyon spot that got packed and loud after a blog post... it lost all the quiet charm. But maybe telling a few trusted people is fine... as long as they respect the place. Where do you stand on passing along these wellness finds... should they stay hidden or be shared? Honestly going back and forth on this...

Your mention of the canyon spot getting packed after a blog post is so familiar. A friend showed a few people his hidden swimming hole, and within a month it was overrun with graffiti and broken glass. Some places just can't handle being shared.

There's a taco truck near me that used to be a quiet local secret. Soon as a food blogger tagged the location, the line is 45 minutes long and the whole vibe changed. It happens with everything now.
