California Highway 395 Hot Springs Road Trip
My friend and I packed our car and hit the road to explore a couple hot springs off highway 395. We headed to the small town of Bridgeport where we explored two hot springs and stayed the night in a covered wagon. We were back on the road after breakfast and headed down to Lee Vining where we kayaked at Mono Lake. We enjoyed a late lunch with live music and ended our trip at one final hot springs in Mammoth Lakes.

Travertine Hot Spring
Jack Sawyer Rd
Bridgeport, CA 93517
Travertine is a form of limestone deposited by mineral springs, especially hot springs. Travertine often has a fibrous or concentric appearance and exists in white, tan, and cream-colored varieties. It is formed by a process of rapid precipitation of calcium carbonate, often at the mouth of a hot spring or in a limestone cave. In the latter, it can form stalactites, stalagmites, and other speleothems. It is frequently used in Italy and elsewhere as a building material.
Travertine is a terrestrial sedimentary rock, formed by the precipitation of carbonate minerals from solution in ground and surface waters, and/or geothermally heated hot-springs.[1][2] Similar (but softer and extremely porous) deposits formed from ambient-temperature water are known as tufa.
トラバーチン（英：travertine）は、温泉、鉱泉、あるいは地下水中より生じた石灰質化学沈殿岩で、緻密、多孔質、縞状など、多様な構造をもつ。温泉沈殿物や鍾乳洞内の鍾乳石類、あるいは石灰分の多い河川沈殿物など。とくに多孔質で、軟弱なものをトゥファ（tufa）と呼ぶ。これらの総称として石灰華（calcareous sinter）が用いられる。緻密で、研磨して美しい光沢や色合い、模様を有するものを、装飾石材名としてオニックス マーブル（onyx marble）とかケイブ オニックス（cave onyx）という[1] [2] [3]。
ローマ近郊Tivoli地方のラテン語名Tiburに由来し、イタリア語でtravertino（フランス語でtravertin）と呼ぶ。本項では温泉生成物について主に記述する。
BODIE State Park & TRAVERTINE hot spring
Looking for the other California we drove off the beaten roads to visit the historic site Bodie State Park, a ghost mine town that took us back to the old days of the far west. Then after a hike near the Mono lake Sierras, we discovered a spectacular view while soaking in the Travertine hot spring where we felt free as birds. A wonderful experience!
