Solitary Geyser, Fountain geyser in Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, United States
The Solitary Geyser releases clear blue water from a geyserite rim, with orange and yellow thermophilic formations extending along its runoff channels.
Prior to 1914, this thermal feature functioned as a stable hot spring until water diversion for a swimming pool triggered its transformation into an active geyser.
The geyser represents one of the numerous thermal features within Yellowstone, where Native American tribes held the natural phenomena in high spiritual regard.
Visitors can reach the geyser through the Observation Point loop trail behind Old Faithful, with eruptions occurring every four to eight minutes.
The geyser maintains a temperature of 182.8°F and continues its eruption pattern despite the restoration of original water levels in 1951.
