Great Fountain Geyser Eruption

The powerful Great Fountain Geyser erupts amidst a serene landscape, surrounded by forest and a dramatic sky. Steam rises as water gushes into the air.

The Great Fountain Geyser is a fountain-type geyser located in the Firehole Lake area of Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

The geyser erupts every 9 to 15 hours. Great Fountain's maximum height ranges from about 75 feet (23 m) to over 220 feet (67 m). Its duration is usually about one hour, but durations of over two hours have been seen.
