As usual, very nice composition. Love how the blue and white colors blend into each other.

Nice view…must have been a warmer day as I don’t see steam coming out of the center cone.

Cheers!

Mel, Thanks, it’s even better when you’re right there. I actually remember this particular thermal feature from when I first visited Yellowstone in 1963, only 2 years older than Utah is now.

Robert, It was a nice enough day in September. As I recall, it was fairly warm, though it was the last day of the season for some of the operations around Fishing Bridge.

Debo, Well back in the early day’s, visitors did use it for cooking their fish, still on the hook!
