Riverside Geyser
Riverside Geyser in Yellowstone shoots steam and water to heights of 75 feet in an arch over the river, sometimes causing brilliant rainbows. The eruptions occur every 5 1/2 to 7 hours and last for some 20 minutes. Riverside is one of the most predictable geysers in the park, because it is not located near any other geysers that may disrupt the flow of underground water in the geyser's plumbing.
---Greg Embree, curator
"This view shows Riverside Geyser from the trail toward Morning Glory Pool. It is easy to forget the scale of what you are looking at, until you see people in the frame. For me, this shot evokes the iconic black-and-white photos from the earliest days of Yellowstone."
