Long sleeves and long workout pants worked just fine for me. You're walking through a ravine so it was shaded for the most part and actually kinda chilly (expected for this time of year). Weather was in the mid-high 50's and we started at 1120am. Some people take their dogs on the 2nd half and pass/carry them down the huge boulders. I don't have kids so I wouldn't be able to gauge if the little ones would make it (like ages 4-8ish?), kinda questionable. I'd say that kids and dogs would be fine. It's not very bad, just an unanticipated calf workout. The only time you weren't walking in dirt is about 3/4 of a mile in where you traverse the side of the mountain/rocky area. The first half (possibly about 3 miles?) you're walking on dirt and gravel- so you're kinda sinking in a little with every footstep, which left you sorta walking on your toes- the entire first half. Our expectations was it was an easy hike for the first half and the second half can get a little 'sketchy' per our outdoorsy friend. A group of us finally made it out there and gosh was it rewarding and such a nice adventure! Our group consisted of one really outdoorsy guy, 2 non-hikers and 3 average/active people. I've lived in Vegas for 5 years and always heard about the hot springs. It makes the distance seem not so bad as it is very fun altogether. The hike back is all uphill but the views and the climb are enjoyable as you get to boulder your way back up. Durring the spring the water in the river is very cold (50 degrees I would bet) So jumping in is not a very good idea IMO. With gorgeous views of the river walls on the far side (about 100-150ft) the river flows through the canyon at a quik pace, creating a very kind breeze which is very nice to relax too as you layout on the rocks enjoying the sunshine. (make sure to take out what you carry in, NO GLASS) Once thru the spring area you will be able to decend a little further down to the River. With a slightly green tint the pools seem to glow in the afternoon shade, making for excellent photo opportunities and a wonderfull picnic area. The Hot spring pools themselves are incredible, they decend from pool to pool for about 100 yards. Once into the narrows you will be able to scramble through huge boulders and wonderful downhill views of the areas ahead. As you decend into the canyon itself the walls close in creating a natural beauty and a wonderfull set of narrows.
