<DIV>Very clearly the feature shown in the photo is NOT Hygeia Spring, for it is
a rather small feature atop a geyserite mound. It also (apparently) supplied
water to/toward the hotel, which would account for the wooden pipe shown on the
map.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thus, the large pool and "geyserite bathtub" is clearly something else
that, so far as I know, has no name. If it did really serve as a bathtub, then
it seems highly likely that the squared-off end is artificial. Most definitely
do not confuse this feature with Bath Spring (in the River Group) or with Baby
Bathtub (also River Group).</DIV>

style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>I have
the following picture of the Hygeia Spring area of the very lower Lower Geyser
Basin (Marshall Hotel group) that I posted on another Yellowstone forum.
Originally I thought this feature was the same as Hygeia Spring. However, as I
researched the geography more, it appears (see map link below) that there is a
difference between the Hygeia Spring per se and the feature with the geyserite
tub. <BR>If so, what is the geyersite tub called (Bath Tub Spring, Bath
Spring ??). <BR>Also, was the "tub" (the squared section at the end)
manmade or natural?<BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV></FONT><br/><font style="color:black;font:normal 10pt arial,san-serif;"> <hr style="margin-top:10px"/><A HREF=http://pr.atwola.com/promoclk/100126575x1220635155x1201407495/aol?redir=http:%2F%2Fad.doubleclick.net%2Fclk%3B213771973%3B35379628%3Bw>New Deals on Dell Netbooks - Now starting at $299</A></font></DIV></BODY></HTML>
