Hi Geysers, I wrote to Janus about the pic under the impression it was Great Fountain. Anyway, they replied quickly. ~~~ Terri Davis Dear Teresa, Thank you for your email. Janus purchased this photography as a stock image for our Janus Report newsletter and we were unaware that the photo displayed illegal behavior as you described below. We apologize for the oversight and will remove the photo from the online Janus Report.

That is irresponsible, fostering the idea to people that it is OK to walk on such delicate thermal features. It's illegal, too. In a message dated 4/21/2015 3:00:35 P.M.
