Yellowstone Day 2: Part 4

Our next stop was at Black Sand Basin, and from there we continued on to the Grand Prismatic Spring.  I am lumping the two together mainly because they are very similar.

Firehole River with a small geyser erupting on the bank.  Isn't it interesting how one side of the river has the bacterial mats and the boiling water, and the other side is a normal river bank?

The last stop of the day was at Lewis Falls.  We had just enough daylight left to be able to enjoy this beautiful waterfall
