Excelsior Geyser

View On Black

 

Portion of Excelsior Geyser in Midway Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park. Excelsior Geyser was active until 1890 and often erupted to over 300 feet high. Its powerful eruptions apparently damaged its internal plumbing, and it now boils as a hot spring most of the time.
