When the first white explorers came to this valley of the Rio Grande where Indian Hot Springs nestles in quiet splendor at over 3,000 feet elevation, they found stone troughs, hand dug by prehistoric people. The stone troughs, located around the warm springs provided enjoyment in the therapeutic waters. Later, the Indians made use of the natural stone "bathtubs" for bathing in the waters, and considered them to be enchanted liquids capable of miraculous healings.
