This place is unique. My girlfriend and I visited from Philadelphia not for the spa services but for a traditional Ute Indian sweat ceremony in the caves held by Kenny Frost. Frost has been holding these ceremonies for almost 3 decades as he continues the Ute Indian traditions. I came to learn that he has been banned from the caves over a botched event at the hotel. Im sure that there are many sides to the story but there has to be some way to allow a deserving Native American to continue this tradition. Based upon the climate of the country the optics suck! I believe the owners of Yamoah have a historical, anthropological, cultural and MORAL obligation to make this right! This is the right thing to do based upon the ugly and embarrassing treatment of natives over the history of our country. Please make this right
