Castle Geyser

Castle Geyser is in the Upper Geyser Basin, just a short walk from Old Faithful.  It was named in 1870 because of it's supposed appearance like a castle.  It has a large area of runoff and associated microbial/algae mats on one side, shown in the angle from the prettier photos on the bottom.
