Turquoise Pool, Hot spring in Midway Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, US.
The Turquoise Pool maintains temperatures between 142 and 160 degrees Fahrenheit, displaying mineral-rich waters within the extensive geothermal system of Yellowstone National Park.
Members of the Hayden Geological Survey named and documented Turquoise Pool during their 1878 expedition, which mapped numerous thermal features throughout Yellowstone.
Native American tribes of the region regarded the thermal waters of Yellowstone, including Turquoise Pool, as places of spiritual and medicinal importance.
The pool sits at an elevation of 7,250 feet and requires visitors to stay on designated boardwalks while observing the thermal feature for safety reasons.
The mineral composition of Turquoise Pool creates water colors that shift with temperature changes and bacterial presence throughout different seasons.
