West Thumb Geyser Basin

This photo was taken from the boardwalk through the West Thumb Geyser Basin and looks out over Yellowstone Lake. The geyser basin is on the shore of the lake and the boardwalk, for a short distance follows the meeting place of lake and geyser basin.The feature here is known as Fishing Cone, a small hot spring in the lake that is renowned, so the tale goes, for being a place to cook your fish while you are catching them.
