Consisting of two large pools, Yellowstone's Midway Geyser Basin’s main attraction is undoubtedly Grand Prismatic Spring.
But Excelsior Geyser (or rather, its crater) is the first feature you pass on the boardwalk. A steaming body of teal waters running off into the Firehole River, Excelsior Geyser produces approximately 4,500 gallons of runoff per minute, which comes out to around 6 million gallons a day.
This beauty of this feature is typically hard to see due to the constant cloud of steam that hovers over it...........
But a little persistence and patience can provide a brief glimpse into its color and depths. This is how I saw it......
Thanks for taking a look. Comments are much appreciated.
Have a great Tuesday.

Excelsior was once the largest geyser In the world, located on Midway Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. Excelsior is now a productive thermal spring, presently discharging 4050 gallons per minute. Numerous vents boil and churn the water within the crater, covering it in a dense layer of steam.

Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. I very much appreciate it.
In the 1880s, Excelsior was the largest known geyser, erupting up to 300 ft. Now, it is a more modest hot spring with temps of 93ºC (199ºF). Midway Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
This New York monument on the Gettysburg battlefield is topped with a bronze eagle, the state motto "Excelsior" (ever upward) and "e pluribus unum" (out of many, one). The pentagon base and five columns represent the four regiments in the brigade that "resisted the enemy" near Emmitsburg road plus one that was detached "to support General Graham’s Brigade at the Peach Orchard which was heavily attacked by McLaws’ Division of the Confederate Army." The numbers on the bronze plaques indicate that together they sustained nearly 500 casualties in 2 days.

Die leuchtenden Farben entstehen im Wechselspiel von Bakterien und dem heißen Quellwasser mit seiner ganz besonderen chemischen Zusammensetzung.
The bright colors are created by the interaction of bacteria and the hot spring water with its very special chemical composition.
While out near Uptown, I went out to see if the MN&S Job (H21) was yet to arrive St. Louis Park - sure enough! The power was working down below Milwaukee Junction around Louisiana Avenue and coming back to reattach to their train. I waited here at Excelsior Boulevard, and why not? Nice light and a nice leader. Next stop is Nesbitt Yard down in Bloomington to interchange with Progressive Rail.

Located in Albany in the great state of New York, the Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd Tower was completed in 1966 housing the offices of Dept of Health & OGS.
Big old brick building in Bloomfield. Formerly Excelsior Laundry. The plastic windows suggest someone is using the space and maybe in the process of renovating it. The no parking sign nearly swallowed up by kudzu made me smile. The steep point of view from down the hill, with the puiffy cloud sky framing the building, seemed to add drama and monumentality. The open truck: someone moving stuff in or out? Who knows. I guess I wasn't curious enough to find out, which is why I am not a photojournalist.

Excelsior Geyser Crater is a hot spring in the Midway Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park in the United States. Excelsior was named by the Hayden Geological Survey of 1871. Possibly the only known photograph of Excelsior in full eruption was taken by Frank Jay Haynes in 1888.
The Excelsior Geyser pool discharges 4,000 to 4,500 gallons (15,100–17,000 l) of 199 °F (93 °C) water per minute directly into the Firehole River. In the late 19th century (there was possibly some activity in 1901 too), it was an active geyser that erupted frequently. Most eruptions were about 100 feet high, although some exceeded 300 feet (91 m) in both height and width. It is believed that the powerful eruptions damaged its internal plumbing system, and it now boils as a productive hot spring most of the time.
