A Cross Country Odyssey - 2003
Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone
Mammoth Hot Springs are located in the northwest part of the park. The geothermal activity is constantly on the move in this area and the active areas are different each time we have visited. This year it was raining during the time we were there and the colors appear a bit subdued.
