La Brea Tarpits

Tar Puddle. Tar puddles pop up in various parts of the tar pit park. Visitors can poke a stick in the tar to feel the texture. Be careful though...my sister got tar on her leg from leaning onto the grass by the puddle and the tar wouldn't come off for 2 days!
Visitors even make tar graffitti with sticks dipped in the tar.
This sad mammoth (?) floated back and forth. He must be mounted on a barge. Fat gas bubbles come to the surface of this oily lagoon every few seconds. Slick!
