Giantess Geyser

Giantess Geyser is a fountain-type geyser in the Upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. It is known for its violent and infrequent eruptions of multiple water bursts that reach from 100 to 200 feet (30 to 61 m). Eruptions generally occur 2 to 6 times a year. The surrounding area may shake

from underground steam explosions just before the initial water and/or steam eruptions. Eruptions may occur twice hourly, experience a tremendous steam phase, and continue activity for 4 to 48 hours. The Geyser last erupted on August 26, 2020, after a six-year, 210 day hiatus. A follow-up eruption occurred 15 days later on 10 September 2020. Another eruption occurred on 11 August 2021
