Pink Cone Geyser, Cone geyser in Lower Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, US.

The geyser formations display a distinct pinkish-red coloration caused by deposits of manganese oxide and iron oxide throughout the siliceous sinter cone.

Following the 1983 Borah Peak earthquake, the eruption frequency of Pink Cone Geyser shifted from twice daily to intervals of five to seven hours.

Scientists and park visitors document the geyser's behavior through photographs and data collection, contributing to geological research in Yellowstone National Park.

Visitors can observe eruptions reaching heights of 30 feet with intervals between 9 and 22 hours, lasting approximately 1.5 to 2 hours per event.

The geyser maintains water temperatures of 91.3 degrees Celsius, creating regular steam emissions and bubbling sounds before each eruption cycle.
