Laura near “thermal feature”

 

 

Laura and some thermal features.  You can see the dry, cracked mud in those depressions in the ground, some are steaming, and some have mud that is so close to boiling that it is bubbling.  The bubbles are either steam escaping from underground or it is actually boiling.  You can sometimes feel the heat coming from the ground.
