    Tips

    August 31, 2024

    Corporal Geyser is located in the Norris Geyser Basin, which is the hottest and most dynamic geyser basin in Yellowstone National Park. Situated near Norris Junction, the basin lies at the intersection of three major faults causing its intense geothermal activity. Unlike other geyser basins in the park, the waters at Norris are acidic, which supports unique bacteria that create different colors in the basin. For your safety (and the preservation of the delicate ecosystem), the shimmering, bright blue waters of the Corporal Geyser are best enjoyed from the wooden boardwalks.

      Very easy to reach on the flat wooden walkway, very hot on sunny days
