Activity itinerary

Fishing Cone
  • 40m
Fishing Cone, a geothermal feature in Yellowstone National Park, is steeped in history. In the late 1800s, it served as a natural "hot pot" where visitors would cook trout directly in its boiling waters—a novel yet perilous method, leading to several fatalities.
Blue Funnel Spring (Pass by)
Blue Funnel Spring, previously measuring 18 feet across and maintaining temperatures between 172 and 182 degrees Fahrenheit, has witnessed cooling and depletion in the last thirty years, redirecting its water to the nearby Abyss Pool.
Abyss Pool (Pass by)
Behold Abyss Pool, enticing you to stroll over to the observation deck for an up-close encounter! Plummeting 53 feet into the earth, it reigns as one of Yellowstone's deepest hot springs—a title it wears with flair, naturally.
West Thumb Geyser Basin (Pass by)
Thumb Geyser, renowned for its vivid colors, owes its brilliance to thriving bacteria flourishing in the warm waters of the West Thumb Geyser Basin. In the mid-1970s, reduced geyser activity puzzled scientists, attributing the decline to various factors like slow underground pool refilling or changes in rock composition.
