Hike to Artists Paintpots, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming
Artists Paintpots is a small but lovely thermal area just south of Norris Junction.
Artists Paintpots Trail is a 1.1 mile loop trail located near Yellowstone National Park. From the boardwalk, you can see colorful hot springs, two large mudpots, a fumarole, and a couple of geysers. Many of the geothermal features along this trail do not have names, and little is known about them.
Adjacent to this area are three other off-trail, backcountry thermal areas: Sylvan Springs, Gibbon Hill Geyser Basin, and Geyser Creek Thermal area. These areas are fragile, dangerous, and difficult to get to; travel without knowledgeable personnel is discouraged.
