Multicolored algae are responsible for the psychedelic colors of this geothermal geyser, a storybook-like natural structure that erupts water five feet into the air and can be visited during a guided nature walk. Residing in Nevada’s Fly Ranch, the geyser was recently acquired by the Burning Man Project, most famous for its yearly festival in the nearby Black Rock Desert.
