Punch Bowl Spring

One of the few thermal features that I was able to get a good picture of. The overcast skies really washed all the contrast away.

 

Punch Bowl Spring is found a little off the main path in the Upper Geyser Basin, the one with the famous Old Faithful Geyser. It's a really striking object, with the blue pool and brightly colored outflow.

 

I really enjoy the sulfurous smell around the various geyser basins. The best (ie strongest) smell is in the Mud Volcano area.

 

You could hold a convention for victims of chronic flatulence there and no one would notice a thing.

 

Cheers.
