Mammoth Hot Springs

Mammoth Hot Springs is a collection of thermal features at the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It is best known for the travertine terraces that form from mineral deposits, but there are many other observable geothermal features in this area. The algae living in the pools creates the distinct brownish, reddish colors. Our safari makes a stop here. Your guide will educate you on the historical or geological significance of your stop.

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

At a depth of more than 1000ft (305m), the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River is an impressive sight. Water, wind, earthquakes and hydrothermal features have all worked together to form this area.

Monica was excellent! Accommodating, responsive, knowledgeable, timely, and safe! She knew so much about park and wildlife! I felt like I was in an interactive lesson all day but she only educated when we asked for it allowing us space and quiet time throughout the day to just take in the scenery and experience! Snacks, lunch, and drinks were great too! Highly recommend!
