Stay on the path morons. Its not just a violation and bad for the area but it is for your safety. At least 2-6 people die every year because they are fucking stupid and go off the path.
One guy's body was never recovered since he fell into one of the big pools and by the time they were able to try to mount a recovery effort the mineral/chemical content of the spring DISOLVED HIS ENTIRE FUCKING BODY. It took about 24 hours.

>Viktor Pyshniuk, 21 of Lynwood, Washington, was sentenced to seven days in jail for thermal trespass at Steamboat Geyser in the Norris Geyser Basin in Yellowstone National Park (YNP). In addition, he was placed on two years of unsupervised release and received a two-year ban from YNP for a closure violation. The court also ordered Pyshniuk to pay a $1,500 fine, $30 mandatory court processing fee and $20 special assessment.
