Splendid Geyser, Fountain geyser in Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, United States.
Splendid Geyser contains two connected main pools alongside numerous smaller vents, surrounded by distinctive sawtooth rims of geyserite deposits and orange thermophiles.
The geyser maintained high eruption frequency during the early 1970s, followed by a period of dormancy until brief revivals in 1992 and 1998.
Geologists and park visitors gather to observe the rare occasions when Splendid and Daisy geysers erupt simultaneously, creating intense water displays reaching 250 feet.
The water temperature in Splendid Geyser reaches 185.8°F with a pH level of 8.2, making it essential for visitors to maintain safe distances and follow park guidelines.
The intervals between eruptions range from 35 minutes to over 20 years, demonstrating the geyser's exceptional unpredictability among Yellowstone's thermal features.
