Description
White Dome Geyser - Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone is known for its many geysers throughout the park. This is just one of those landmarks but it is a very active one. This geyser is located along the Firehole Lake Drive in the Lower Geyser Basin. Our drive around this side road proved to be very rewarding!
(A bit more information found at Wikipedia: " Its 12-foot-high geyserite cone is one of the largest in the park. Its eruptions are unpredictable, but generally occur with intervals ranging from 15 minutes to 3 hours.[2] Intervals between 20 and 35 minutes are most common.[3] Eruptions typically last 2 to 3 minutes and reach heights of about 30 feet (9.1 m), the maximum height being attained early in the eruption. As usual for cone-type geysers, the play is continuous for most of the eruption's duration, and begins and concludes with a brief steam phase intermixed with liquid spray.")
