Mammoth Hot Springs, bits and bobs

After Canary Spring (previous video), which we spent some time at, we took a flying tour of other things at Mammoth. Here are snippets of three of them:

- Cleopatra Terrace;

- Liberty Cap;

- and Prospect Spring.

Though I can't say it's unique (but maybe it is?) Liberty Cap is like nothing else I've seen at Yellowstone and is the result of deposits building up around a spring, and the spring continuing to issue from the middle of those deposits as it grew higher and higher over a long period.
