Splendid Geyser
Splendid
Geyser's eruptions are at times over 200 feet in height, making it
among the tallest geysers in Yellowstone. Its eruptions are
infrequent and difficult to predict except for the fact that it is
more likely to erupt when a storm front rapidly reduces the barometric
pressure in the area. This slightly reduces the boiling temperature
in the plumbing system and occasionally triggers a splendid eruption.
