TitleSulfurous pool at the Sufur Works in Lassen Volcanic National Park, USA
DescriptionThe last major eruption of Lassen Volcano (Lassen Volcanic National Park, California, USA) was between 1914 and 1921. So, the region remains quite hot and is associated with many geothermal features. At the Sulfur Works, a fumarole and hot spring, hot water and sulfur rich gases reach the surface, and sulfur (yellow) is deposited as crusts.
