第三天下午离开猛犸象温泉区(Mammoth Hot Spring)向南行驶,在傍晚时分抵达诺里斯间歇泉盆地(Norris Geyser Basin)。诺里斯间歇泉盆地是黄石地区温度最高,历史最久,最活跃的地热区,有着黄石公园里最热最不稳定的一系列间歇泉,每年都有新的喷泉产生,也有老的喷泉死去。诺里斯的水大部分都是酸性的,包括其他地方很少见到酸性间歇泉。世界上最大的间歇泉"蒸汽船间歇泉"(Steamboat Geyser)也位于此区,曾创造了喷发高度的记录380英尺。在这里呆了没多久天就黑了,好在傍晚时分的光线有着独特的魅力。离开诺里斯间歇泉盆地之后,我们继续夜宿黄石国家公园里面的Old Faithful Lodge Cabin。

第四天清晨,我们要游览的是位于住处不远的黑沙盆地(Black Sand Basin)。这里是我们此次在黄石公园行程的最后一站。黑沙盆地是个不太大的盆地,位于上间歇泉区,有着一系列像宝石般的灿烂的间歇泉和彩泉,火洞河(Firehole River)穿过其中。因为这里有不少火山石形成的黑沙子,所以得名。清晨这里游客很少,加上到处弥漫的白色温泉烟雾,颇有些仙境的感觉。
