Daisy Geyser

Daisy Geyser is located in the Upper Geyser Basin and shoots water at an angle rather than straight up. The eruptions propel water to heights of around 75 feet and last roughly three minutes before subsiding.

A surveying group called the Hague Party named this geyser before 1890, during the early exploration of Yellowstone. Its consistent eruptions soon made it one of the park's key subjects for scientific observation.

The site draws visitors who gather to watch and photograph the regular eruptions throughout the day. Observing these predictable thermal events has become a key part of how people experience the park's geothermal activity.

Eruptions typically occur roughly every two to three hours, making it possible to plan your visit accordingly. Park rangers display predicted eruption times at information points to help guests time their observation of the event.

Unlike most geysers in the park, this one shoots water at an angle rather than straight up, creating a sideways spray that catches many visitors by surprise. This angled eruption pattern has made it a fascinating subject for geologists studying how geysers can behave differently based on the underground plumbing of each feature.
