Take a meander along the Mammoth Hot Springs Terraces and through time to learn how ancient seas, continental shifts, ice ages and volcanism have created the beautiful, otherworldly springs that lay before us today--and learn why it could look different tomorrow! We’ll take a deep dive into the natural history of one of Yellowstone’s most dynamic thermal features. Join us for an informative, fun look with Ashea, who’s been watching these features morph since the mid-90’s when she first moved to Yellowstone and lived adjacent to the Terraces. Whether you’ve visited the Mammoth Hot Springs before, or never laid eyes on them, this trip is sure to delight your sense of wonder at one of Earth’s most marvelous sites.
Ashea has spent twenty-five years exploring and sharing the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, helping people connect to a wild landscape and to themselves. She has led all ages and interests through Yellowstone including children’s programming, driving snow coaches, skiing and hiking deep into the backcountry, geyser-gazing, and road-based wildlife watching. She lives 100 yards from Yellowstone National Park’s boundary with her ecologist husband, where they own an ecological consulting business and small educational guiding company. Immersing in Yellowstone and the surrounding public lands with their daughter on skis and foot is where they find nourishment. She is excited to share her home landscape with the world in this unique way!
Ashea has been guiding since Sep 1998

Ashea is a super-duper guide: incredibly knowledgable and enthusiastic. I learned a great deal about ecology and geology with spectacular views of nature's beauty, too. Thank you, Ashea.
