    Tips

    May 9, 2023

    Steamboat Geyser currently holds the record as the tallest active geyser in the world. In a major eruption, the water can reach up to 400 feet (122 m) in the air. The geyser is currently in a phase of minor eruptions, with the last large blast happening in 1964. When Steamboat does erupt, it drains the nearby hot spring called Cistern Spring.

      The Geyser shows frequently smaller eruptions and from time to time really big ones (the latest was one week ago, at August 4th). 20 Minutes waiting at the most is meaningful. The big loop to here is a nice walk with lots of different formations. One of the park highlights!
