Description
The beautiful colors and clarity of the water make Morning Glory Pool one of the more beautiful geothermic pools in Yellowstone. In this photo the trees and sky can also be seen reflected on the water's still surface.
The pool was named by Mrs E. N. McGowan, wife of Assistant Park Superintendent, Charles McGowan in 1883. She called it "Convolutus", the Latin name for the morning glory flower, which the spring resembles. By 1889, the name Morning Glory Pool had become common usage in the park
