South Scalloped Spring (5 June 2024) 5

            Hot springs are sites where groundwater emerges at the Earth’s surface (or on the seafloor).  Hot spring water has to be higher in temperature than the human body (an admittedly arbitrary definition): over 98° Fahrenheit or over 37° Celsius.  Geysers are hot springs that episodically erupt columns of water. The highest concentration of geysers and hot springs anywhere is at the Yellowstone Hotspot Volcano in northwestern Wyoming, USA.

South Scalloped Spring is a non-erupting thermal feature in the southwestern Sawmill Group of Yellowstone’s Upper Geyser Basin.  It is located atop the Firehole River’s northern bank, near the Castle-Sawmill Bridge, a little upstream from Deleted Teakettle Geyser.  This hot spring has an irregularly trapezoidal pool about 1 by 2 meters in size.  A thin, projecting geyserite shelf borders the pool on three sides (it appears broken away, or is non-developed on the southwestern side), which have moderately scalloped margins.  Boiling activity takes place in the southwestern portions of the pool.  Overflow water drains southeast, then southwest into the Firehole River.
