#hydrothermal — Public Fediverse posts

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🌡️🌋 #Yellowstone spans roughly 24 km (15 mi) of #boardwalks around its scalding #hydrothermal features, all built by hand.

Park geologists use thermal #cameras to map the hottest zones and route around them, while botanists flag rare #plants and archaeologists check for buried #artifacts before any path is laid. The process keeps millions of visitors safe without disturbing the area’s fragile #ecosystem or #history.
