|| Mammoth springs

After Artist Paint Pot, we drove from Norris to the northern entrance, the Mammoth springs. The roads were congested (by the way, all are one lane of two ways) due to construction, and I heard the northern part of the roads were only just opening up in the beginning of June.

The Mammoth springs were also where the staff located themselves, but the most prominent was the natural evolutions of these hot springs where they were full of calcium, and formed into terraces of steps. Some where old and dead, white and grey, the terraces started to erode, others are live and flowing, those were in yellow and brown. Some places they were together, the dead and the alive, other times they were well apart.
