The travertine mount at Warm Springs, Montana. The rust-colored mound was once the most striking feature in the Deer Lodge Valley. The red staining is from iron oxide precipitation and shows the area where the spring is currently discharging. The hot springs bubbling from the peak of the mound produce about 50 gpm at 172°F — one of the hottest geothermal resources in the state of Montana.
