Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA: the travertine pools of Palette Spring in Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone National Park, are formed by hot, calcium-rich water emerging from underground sources. As the water cools and releases carbon dioxide at the surface, calcium carbonate precipitates, building terraces and rimstone pools. These pools display striking colors—white, yellow, and orange—caused by thermophilic microorganisms and mineral deposits. Constant fluctuations in water flow, temperature, and chemistry reshape the formations over time.

In Yellowstone National Park, Mammoth Hot Springs, the petrified waterfalls, are one of the most prized natural wonders.

Minerva Terrace in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

$Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA: Mound Spring, in the Lower Terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs is an ancient hydrothermal feature manifesting as a prominent travertine mound formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate from geothermally heated groundwater rising through underground fractures, potentially sustained by seismic activity. Its distinctive dark orange hue stems from cyanobacteria thriving in the relatively cooler waters measuring 170°F (77°C), with intermittent flow that varies daily and produces minimal discharge overall. Named by early park guide G.L. Henderson, this long-dormant yet cyclically active spring, inactive for decades until recent reactivation, exemplifies the rapid, dynamic deposition processes typical of the area's terraces.$

Mammoth Hot Springs feature in Yellowstone National Park

Palette Spring is renowned for its colorful, terraced formations created by mineral-laden hot water flowing over the surface. The spring's vibrant hues result from thermophilic bacteria and algae thriving in the varying temperatures and mineral concentrations. This geothermal feature constantly changes as new travertine deposits form. The terraces resemble an artist's palette.
