. Official guide to the Yellowstone National Park : a manual for tourists, being a description of the Mammoth hot springs, the geyser basins, the cataracts, the cañons and other features of the new wonderland : with twenty-one illustrations, a plan of the upper geyser basin and route maps : also an appendix, containing railroad rates, as well as other miscellaneous information . e, and theedges yellow, fading into salmon color as the river is ap-proached. On either side of the road from this point onward, especiallyon the left bank of the river, are numerous other springs, andan occasional small geyser. But the tourist, unless he have anabundance of time at his disposal, will scarcely linger to in-spect them. About the centre of the Middle Geyser Basingroup, there is a sharp bend of the river to the east as it comesfrom the wooded caiion above. Half a mile beyond thispoint a hot flood from an extensive system of sprmgs onRabbit Branch is poured into the stream, the banks of whichall along its course, until the Upper Geyser Basin is reached,five miles further, are pitted with springs, while the inclosinghills are flecked with fleecy clouds of steam which rise out ofthe forest. Indeed, the river in this part of its career receivesso much hot water that the visitor is likely to think the nameFirehole has been aptly bestowed upon it. 62 YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL MAP OF A PART OF THE UPPEE aEYSER BiSlK, SIIOAN ING TUE PRINCIPAL GEYSERS.
