Even if you don't see the gysers before approaching, you smell them a good 100ft. or more before you've approached one. They give off a sulfur smell, sulfur deposits is what you see around the geyser, or the ring around the geyser. It smells like deviled eggs that have been left out on the kitchen table too long.
Norris geyser and hot spring, one of 10,000 gysers and hot springs thru out Yellowstone. See the boiling water?? the water is hot enough to burn boots and have caused scalding deaths.
Two baby elk, part of a family that stopped to take a drink and cool off in the Yellowstone River. It was a very hot day at Yellowstone today, everyone was feeling the heat.
The wonderful and gracious family we stayed with on Whidbey Island, WA. Richard, Myrna, Devon & Hardley the dog, Mouse, the cat and Buddy, the ringed neck dove.
