was our next stop in reaching all areas of Yellowstone. Boy this place is almost dead! Very little water flowing, not much steam and not very impressive. I've been here years ago and it was awesome then. Guess earthquakes have changed the "plumbing system" of the area. Unfortunately, not for the better. We hiked part way up the stairs and browsed around for awhile, met a Ranger and I remarked to him that everything seems to have died. He gave his standard spiel and suggested we visit Canary Pool which is just "magnificent". Since we could drive up to the top we did. Canary Pool, viewed from a hundred or so yards away, didn't look like it was worth the walk to get closer. Took some pictures from the top of the little village below and then we found this thingy at the top, called Orange Mound (I think). It had a little trickle of water running out of it. Becky liked it. We then headed down the road to Norris Geyser Basin.
