   Mammoth Hot Springs is made up of calcium carbonate. It tends to migrate from one nearby location to another every one hundred years or so. Travertine terraces which also develop over time. You can hike the boardwalk and see the terraces much clearer. You may find elk hanging out near buildings. They are accustomed to people. But do not get too close to them.
   Lamar Valley, also in the Upper Loop, once had glaciers that left huge boulders strewn all over the place. And as you drive not too far to Lamar Valley, you will be welcomed by an astoundingly beautiful valley of lush green grass. It is thought the valley was carved by glaciers as well. It is a big draw for bison, elk and pronghorn. And naturally, where you have large herds of animals, you will find predators as well. Sometimes you can see Grizzlies and wolves.
   Tower falls, Calcite Springs and the petrified tree are more places you will see. Super hot sulfuric oil oozes in the Yellowstone River called calcite.
