Description

I got really lucky in Yellowstone National Park and happened to be around the Grand Geyser when it went off. This geyser has the TALLEST eruption of any PREDICTABLE geyser!

This is Great Fountain Geyser not Grand.


Although it is more photographic than Grand most eruptions are about the height of Old Faithful, but if you catch a rare super burst this can get up to 200-250 ft and make everyone wet.


I don't see Grand in your photos, it's maybe a quarter mile west of Beehive just around Lion and you do have a nice picture of Beehive.


But you got really lucky with Pink Cone which is a fun eruption but kinda hard to catch being where it is on the road (just down from Great Fountain)
