Mammoth Hot Springs - Liberty Cap

Mammoth Hot Springs - Liberty Cap
Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming (WY), US
This 37 feet tall rock formation was created by a hot spring which forced water to great heights for hundreds of years. Mineral deposits from the water flow formed the rock formation. In 1871, it was named for it's resemblance to the hats worn during the French Revolution.
