Grand Geyser is a fountain geyser in the Upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park in the United States. It is the tallest predictable geyser known. It was named by Dr. F.V. Hayden in 1871.
Grand's fountain reaches a height of as much as 200 feet (61 m), with a duration of 9 to 12 minutes. Its eruptions occur in a series of 1 to 4 (rarely as many as 5) bursts.
Grand erupts every 7 to 15 hours. It belongs to the Grand Group (or Grand Geyser Complex), and its eruption is connected to those of the other geysers in the group, especially the adjacent Vent Geyser and Turban Geyser.
For a few hours before an eruption by Grand, Turban Geyser erupts for a duration of five minutes about every 20 minutes. Grand's eruption begins within 1 to 2 minutes of one of Turban's eruptions with Vent Geyser erupting shortly after Grand.
My understaning is that this complex (largely empty when we visited - I think it had not fully opened?) was built with government backing and had as one of its objectives the provision to citizens of a resort (discounted/free?). Included is an area showcasing tyraditonal huts from the various ethnic groups that make up the country (eg Fng, Ndowe...)
Some days one is meant to get out, despite what looks bleak, and then be surprised how beautiful clouds can be, and how dramatic change can be inspiring.
Os ambientes da Complex são bem sistematizados, o restaurante/bar interage visualmente muito bem com a pista de skate.
