Roaring Mountain, Thermal mountain in Yellowstone National Park, United States
Roaring Mountain features numerous steam vents and fumaroles across its eastern slope, releasing hot gases and creating a distinctive landscape within Yellowstone National Park.
During the late 1800s, the mountain produced such intense steam releases that the sound of escaping gases could be heard from distances exceeding one mile.
The mountain serves as an educational site where visitors learn about the relationship between Native American tribes and Yellowstone's geothermal features through interpretive displays.
Visitors can observe the mountain's thermal features from a wheelchair-accessible viewing area with interpretive exhibits located at a large parking area along the Norris-Mammoth road.
The thermal area generates over 100 megawatts of geothermal radiative power, transforming surrounding rocks into clay minerals through continuous acidic gas emissions.
