Yellowstone Alert! Massive Heat Melts Roadway, Turns Asphalt Into Soup! Published on Jul 14, 2014 Extreme heat from a massive supervolcano underneath Yellowstone National Park is melting a major roadway at the popular summertime tourist attraction. Park officials have closed the area to visitors. Firehole Lake Drive, a 3-mile-plus offshoot of the parks Grand Loop that connects the Old Faithful geyser and the Madison Junction, is currently off limits. Park operators say the danger of stepping on seemingly solid soil into severely hot water is high. It basically turned the asphalt into soup. It turned the gravel road into oatmeal, Yellowstone spokesman Dan Hottle said. https://youtube/watch?v=htSS_nOkMvo#t=33
