Back to Yellowstone National Park for the photo challenge of warmth this week:
Taken just along the boardwalk from last week’s challenge of Yellow steam releases built up water pressure in the thermal basins. It may look inviting but is super-heated above boiling point by underground molten rock.
Smile for the camera and stay on the boardwalk. Don’t step back!

Glad you liked it. Always looking for a slightly arty shot – not that you have to look too hard at Yellowstone. 😉

Yellowstone is definitely on my ‘must visit’ list! The mist in the first photo is beautiful. Have been taking pics of hot springs myself lately!

You will absolutely love it there, Barb. Give yourself at least two days, more if you have the time. I can recommend a reasonable rv park. The ones near the park gates can be pricey. Then go on to the Tetons.

I’m sure that’s warmer than where you now are?

You might think so BD but the forecast for tomorrow is a low of -17° C and snow! We were there in early September. If you fancy a trip there now pack some skis and snow shoes. And your new camera. I’d love to see your photos!

-17 not likely I’d go there for that temp… here we are daily around 40 C

Wonderful place, the first time we went it was super windy and there were quite a few hats on top of the earth around the springs!

But cold in the wintertime. I’d love to see the geysers and thermal pools bubbling up through the snow. That would be a sight!
