Some tourists were recently sentenced for traipsing into off-limits areas of Yellowstone National Park.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Wyoming said in a release a woman from Seattle was sentenced to seven days of incarceration and $40 in court costs for walking off the boardwalk surrounding Old Faithful and walking about 10 feet onto the cone of the geyser. The office said some of her conduct was captured on video by another park visitor.

Separately, a Georgia man was sentenced to five years unsupervised probation and a ban from the park for driving off the road and parking in a thermal area. He was fined about $1,000.

Yellowstone is reminding visitors that snow-covered areas just off the boardwalk may seem inviting and safe, but the ground can be fragile and just a few inches thick. People have been severely burned and killed stepping off boardwalks.

It’s also illegal to walk on or damage the park’s thermal features.
