Yellowstone's Grand Prismatic Spring

            My vote for "Most Fascinating Feature" in all of Yellowstone National Park

The Spring was first officially described, and named, by the Hayden Expedition in 1871, which was the first federally-funded exploration of what became Yellowstone. 
The expedition's leader, Ferdinand Hayden, wrote:

"Nothing ever conceived by human art could equal the peculiar vividness and delicacy of color of these remarkable prismatic springs. Life becomes a privilege and a blessing after one has seen and thoroughly felt these incomparable types of nature's cunning skill."

That truly says it all..........

Thanks for the visit.
Have a great Saturday !
