Mammoth Hot Springs




There are alot of hot springs in Yellowstone with thermal activity - these photos are of the Mammoth hot springs.  The thermophiles (bacteria that thrive in hot water) create the unique colors in the springs.  And no, you can't go in....

There were alot of tourists here and we were getting a lot of strange looks and some chuckles since we had Lance and Tatanka out (Sarah was very embarrassed to be carrying Tatanka around).  Lance is thinking about surfing in the last photo.  He misses his board.
