Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park is a unique, constantly changing landscape of travertine terraces created by hot, mineral-rich water depositing calcium carbonate as it cools and loses carbon dioxide. Located near the park's North Entrance, it features spectacular formations like Minerva and Angel Terrace, accessible via boardwalks and drives, showcasing a vibrant mix of colors from algae and bacteria. The area also includes the historic Fort Yellowstone, offering a glimpse into the park's past alongside its dynamic geothermal features, making it a must-see geological wonder.
