About this map

Yellowstone National Park reveals its geothermal complexity along the western shores of Yellowstone Lake West Thumb. This 1980s-era documentation highlights the developed visitor infrastructure at Grant Village, including its Amphitheater, Visitor Center, and nearby Radio Tower. The landscape is dominated by the hydrothermal activity of the West Thumb Geyser Basin, where specific thermal features like Black Pool, Thumb Paintpots, and Beach Geyser are precisely located along the water's edge.
