All i can say is WOW. This place is a gem out of no where. I never seen anything like this in my life. People always talking bout paranormal is all about ghost. But i hate to tell you it encompass alot of things that are not normal. The things that go bump in the night. The things that are just unknown. So when i come across things like this. It make me say Hmmmmmmmm. Because this not normal. But its not man made. Its Gaia made. Sorry Mother Earth. But once again this was a native and settler hot spot. So if it makes you Question it. Then its worth researching it. So if you get the chance head on out to soda springs. Its pretty cool. The also have a geyser that goes off every hour. Now thats man made. Even it was a mistake. lol. So
some history on historic Soda Springs. Much love and happy hunting.
Soda Springs has a rich history starting when the Pioneers headed west for California and Oregon. Due to the abundance of springs and water in the area, Soda Springs became known as the "Oregon Trail Oasis." The famous Steam Boat Springs and Hooper Springs, which was originally called "Beer Springs," were some of the main sites to be seen by the earlier settlers and travelers as well as the many sulfurous springs that many pioneers complained about the smell coming from the them. The City later became further famous in 1937 when a well was being drilled in search of hot water for a bath house that unleashed what is known as the Geyser, which is the only captive Geyser in the world.
160 years, soda water from these springs was marked nationally after rail service reached this resort area in 1882. W.H. Hooper, Salt Lake City's leading banker and president of Zions Cooperative Mercantile Institution, had his summer home here. He did much to found and promote Soda Springs and its soda water industry while serving as Utah's delegate to Congress.
