    Hiking

    This dormant geyser once put on some of the most spectacular eruptions in Yellowstone National Park, shooting water up to 300 feet in the air. The Excelsior Geyser now boils away in a more subdued manner, spilling its contents into the Firehole River at a rate of 4,000 gallons a minute.
