Mammoth Hot Springs: Minerva Terrace reactivated within the last few weeks per mhreed. Today water is emanating from a single spot partway down the terrace, flowing down for 50ft before disappearing. Fresh brilliant white calcite extends the entire length of the flow with several turquoise blue pools and some orange bacteria. Go Minerva! |

Lakeside Spring is overflowing even more than two weeks ago - this is more overflow than I think I've seen in 20+ years. It is also sending up bubbles throughout the pool. Might be another one to keep an eye on since Ranger Brian did witness the water bouncing and a splash of about 2 feet a few years back. |

(generic time): "On the morning of Saturday, June 21, visitors at Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park observed a bison slip into a shallow part of the hot spring. Clearly alarmed by the hot water—up to about 89 °C (192 °F), which is just below boiling temperature at that elevation—the animal stumbled as it tried to get out and ended up stepping into an area of deeper water and quickly perished.
Yellowstone National Park officials decided not to remove the carcass. [...]" |

The orange pool north of Thumb Paint Pots was thumping loudly last fall with the water sounding very deep as the thumps came out of what seemed to be a cave forming. This spring it is full of water and looks sort of like a mini Dragon's Mouth Spring with water sloshing out of the overhang. Overall water levels in the Paint Pots area are very high with the "Paint Pots Pond" overflowing into the first pool to the north. Again, as with Surging Spring, the water levels are about as high as I've seen them. I would need to check photos, but I think there was only one other time they were this high and Surging was active then - maybe around 2009? |
