Best 1 Great Fountain Geyser

Great Fountain Geyser is a consistently erupting geyser located within Yellowstone National Park’s Lower Geyser Basin. Its notable predictability makes it the only reliably forecast geyser in the park. The geyser's eruptions create impressive terraced pools and are of interest to scientists studying...

2 Morning Geyser

Morning Geyser is a naturally occurring fountain geyser located within Yellowstone National Park’s Lower Geyser Basin. It was first documented in 1899 and exhibits periodic eruptions reaching heights of approximately 200 feet. This geyser is notable for its consistent eruption patterns, particularly...

3 White Dome Geyser

White Dome Geyser is a natural geyser located within Yellowstone National Park’s Lower Geyser Basin. The notable feature is its large, white silica cone, approximately three meters high, which dramatically surrounds the active vent. This geyser consistently produces impressive eruptions and is of in...

4 Fountain Geyser

Fountain Geyser is a natural geyser within Yellowstone’s Lower Basin, specifically the Fountain Group. It produces dramatic, intermittent eruptions reaching heights of approximately eighty feet. The geyser's behavior—driven by underground thermal activity—is notable for its predictable, though varia...

5 Pink Cone Geyser

Pink Cone Geyser is a notable hydrothermal feature situated in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. It was named by the Hayden Geological Survey due to its distinctively dark, pinkish-red siliceous sinter cone, formed by years of mineral deposits. As a predictable cone geyser, it eru...

6 Clepsydra Geyser

Clepsydra Geyser is a fountain-type geyser situated in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park, adjacent to the Fountain Paint Pot. It was named for the Greek word klepsydra, meaning water clock, because it historically erupted with regular, clock-like intervals. Following the 1959 Hebge...
