Mammoth Hot Springs (1 of 3)
26 Mei 2019, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
We finished our day with a stop at the Lower Terrace of Mammoth Hot Springs. The spring's waters originate from Norris Geyser Basin. Traveling along an underground fault line through limestone, the waters pick up calcium carbonate, which is then deposited in Mammoth, becoming Travertine. Algae living in the waters color the area with beautiful hues of brown, orange, red, and green. In this area of the springs, we observed Liberty Cap, Devil's Thumb and Palette Spring.Baca lagi

Back Basin (1 of 5)
27 Mei 2019, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ⛅ 7 °C
Norris' Back Basin is home to ten geysers and several thermal springs. Beginning along the boardwalk, we saw the Minute, Monarch and Fearless Geysers, as well as the Palpitator Spring. Minute Geyser is, unfortunately, a casualty of early visitors to the park, who would throw debris into the feature. At one time, the geyser would erupt every 60 seconds, but after years of vandalism, it now erupts irregularly.Baca lagi
