Main Terrace Pastels

The main terrace at Mammoth Hot Springs is called... wait for it.. the Main Terrace. :) It is arguably the most beautiful formation at Mammoth, consisting of a set of cascading, rippling terraces of travertine, with bacterial mats and other minerals creating a spectrum of colors from orange to blue and green.

Here Mount Everts is once again in the background, along with some nicely cooperative puffy clouds. :)
