Around the geysers are pools of steaming water which the signs say have enough acid in them to eat through your boots.
This acidic water kills any forms of life it comes in contact with and leaves this course, white, ash like substance.
As we drove around geysers would just erupt in open areas. You could feel the heat and steam.
I took a video of Old Faithful and forgot to turn off the camera. Since it shows old Faithful for about 1 minute and my knee for another minute - I won't post it here.
I'll bet you are not bored any longer by the scenery! I'm enjoying your trip -- reliving our trip vicariously thru you and Jerry and your adventures. The commentary makes me LOL!
ReplyDeletePics are great -- keep them coming. Have great fun and collect those "tales to tell"...
