PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Phyllis KhareYellowstone holds the planet’s most diverse and intact collection of geysers, hot springs, mud pots, and fumaroles (the small openings where hot sulfurous gases are coming out).
The more than 300 geysers here make up two-thirds of all those found on earth.
Combine this with more than 10,000 thermal features comprised of brilliantly colored hot springs, bubbling mud pots, and steaming fumaroles, and you have a place like no other.
Yellowstone’s vast collection of thermal features provides a constant reminder of the park’s recent volcanic past.

PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
John SAfter thought: pretty much need a toad/vehicle; not a lot to do within walking/bicycling distance. John SJust came back from a nice stay at Desoto SP. One of the best we've experienced! Sites are nicely spaced out, not crowded on the next. Shaded, some are asphalt paved. If not paved, graveled, pretty level. Picnic tables, most have fire rings.
