Mammoth Hot Springs

The Mammoth Hot Springs were different from the thermal pools.  They build up beautiful terraces of travertine rock.  These "living sculptures" are constantly changing and moving-- gradually engulfing trees, other vegetation, and sometimes roads. 





The road to Mammoth Hot Springs had a wonderful trestle, similar to the one at Linville, NC.

The trestle was an engineering marvel, and very exciting to drive across.
