You can still smell the strong sulphur in the steam venting out from several locations on the plateau, but there is currently not enough water rising to form a pool. Over a hundred years ago John Muir apparently saved himself and a companion by lying on the heat from the steam when forced by weather to overnight on the plateau without a tent or sleeping bag, but that wouldn't be enough heat currently. Several simple stone wall circles provide some limited wind protection.
