A Morning in Solar de Mañana Geyser Basin in Bolivia

This place is characterized by extreme volcanic activity and there are tons of sulphur springs nearby, it is filled with sand lakes and steam pools with saltwater. Industrial harvesting of resources has been tried in the end of the 80s but wasn't fruitful. There are a many holes spewing gasses and the best known emits pressurized steam, observable in the morning around 50 meters high.

Solar de Mañana together with El Tatio is one of the geothermal fields found at high elevation and is connected to the volcanic system of the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex. The Solar de Mañana a part of the geothermal system of the Laguna Colorada caldera.

I've done the Salar de Uyini tour in Bolivia, twice. The first time, I came in from Bolivia and the second time coming from Chile to enter Bolivia. This was from the first tour. If you're into crazy landscapes and just a far gone out adventure, you'd wanna go here.

Have you been to the Salar de Uyuni?

But do a lot of research. Took me about the 3 weeks to learn the ins and out of this place and still am.

Thank you for Reply Sir. Its very generous of yours. I will sure do research. Thank you very much.

Sol de Manana is an area of about 10 square kilometers at an altitude of 5000 meters above the sea level. In this place, well seen intense volcanic activity: the gurgling mud pots, gas jets from the ground, sulphuric pools. Scientists say that this is not a field of geysers and geothermal area, as it has about 50 natural boiling pools, and high steam jets in the form of geysers almost all of artificial origin. They left after attempts to use geothermal energy in the late 20th century, but work was discontinued due to low profitability.

nice shot

Great photography, I liked it very much....many many thank..

Amazing pic! Looks like a great sunrise :) What season was this taken in? Loved the line, 'If you're into crazy landscapes and just a far gone out adventure, you'd wanna go here.'

I think fall? Bolivia is kinda close to the Equator so I don't know :)

Hehe. Just curious. For some reason it reminded me of some chilly fall mornings I camped around random hot springs in Japan :)
