Mammoth in Yellowstone National Park
Mammoth in Yellowstone National Park
Mammoth Hot Springs. Mineral-laden hot water flows from springs, depositing calcite and other substances in its wake. Over time, these deposits form large terraces and other shapes. Some of the terraces grow several inches per day.
Fort Yellowstone. The historic center of activity during the United States Army's tenure of the park.
Bunsen Peak. The hike to the top of this 8,564 foot (2610m) peak takes approximately three hours round trip. The peak overlooks the old Ft. Yellowstone area and it is only a gradual climb. Bring water and snacks (and bear bells if you think they'll work).
Boiling River. This small swimming hole is one of very few spots in the park where visitors can soak in naturally-heated water. It tends to be very crowded, so try to visit very early in the morning during peak season.
