This Concludes Your Tour of Mammoth Hot Spring Terraces

Visitors take advantage of an extensive system of boardwalks to enjoy the views of Mammoth Hot Spring Terraces.

Thank you for joining us on this online tour of Mammoth Hot Springs. Years of observation of the hot spring activity at Mammoth indicate that while change is ongoing and sometimes takes place literally overnight, the overall level of activity and water discharge has remained relatively constant throughout the decades. If you've ever visited Mammoth Hot Springs in person you no doubt saw landscapes different from those pictured on this tour. Here, as in few other places on earth, geological activity can be appreciated on a human time scale.
