Lovell Wash Mb. Horse Spring Fm. (Miocene) fossil hot spring
Tilted carbonate lacustrine strata of the Miocene Lovell Wash Member of the Horse Springs Formation are host to 3-dimensional exposure of a paleo-hot spring capped by travertine pools. The brecciated region beneath the pools is silicified and likely transmitted hot fluids upwards towards a saline, alkaline lake.
