Thermopolis State Park

It's called Thermopolis because of the hot springs which are there. The above fountain demonstrates that lots of minerals are in the water of these springs! Most people only need to smell the place ( think sulfur) to figure that out, but for those who need a visual: This fountain, 100 years ago, was just a little metal spicket and now look at it!











The stream was like warm bath water!




Sean thinks it is funny to watch me cling to the edge of the suspension bridge over the teaming and swirling Big Horn River.
