The stagecoach in this view is a four-horse coach, the kind that carried tourists up from the railroad towns to Yellowstone's hot springs in the 1880s and 1890s, before automobiles reached the park. Its setting is the terraced limestone at Mammoth Hot Springs, where mineral-rich water from underground cools and deposits travertine in stepped pools that build up over centuries. Photographers of the era often paired these formations with visitor transport to show how easily a traveler could reach the park's wonders. The result is a record of both a natural feature and the early tourist trade that made it famous.
