Yellowstone National Park | Fountain Paint Pot Geyser Basin | Walking Tour - Geysers and Hot Springs

Along Fountain Paint Pot Trail you will see various hydrothermal features that are expressions of Yellowstone’s still active volcano. Within this geologic system, each type of thermal feature is represented. They can be grouped into two general categories-those with a great deal of water (hot springs and geysers) and those with limited water (mudpots and fumaroles). Despite their structural similarities, no two features are exactly alike.
Notes: Thermal activity throughout this entire area. Stay on the boardwalk at all times.
