About this spot
West Thumb Paints Pots is the name given to a large collection of paint pots and pools located in the middle of the basin. Many of the pools and features within the group have their own names. When you first leave the parking lot and come to the main boardwalk this is the expansive view over the paint pots and pools looking east towards Yellowstone Lake.
