Castle Geyser

USA / Montana / West Yellowstone /

Yellowstone National Park
With larger and longer eruptions than Old Faithful, Castle Geyser is pretty cool. It erupts roughly every 13 hours or so, but erupts voluminously for about an hour straight. It's quite possible that the eruption is also taller than Old Faithful's.

Comments

  • Castle Geyser is cool, but it is not taller than Old Faithful! Castle plays to a maximum 90 or 100 feet at best, while Old Faithful is virtually never less than 100 feet tall (except during very rare minor play), and often exceeds 150 feet.
