Old Faithful is Waiting

Old Faithful got its name appropriately. This geyser erupts faithfully every 35 to 120 minutes for any where between 1.5 to 5 minutes. Throughout the summer people gather to watch this magnificent geyser shoot to heights from 90 to 184 feet. I remember, as a child, sitting on the benches and waiting expectantly for the geyser to launch.

Early spring in the Park is beautiful with new life and baby buffalos.  The water is high with run off from the mountains. Geysers and paint pots of vivid colors emit steam into the cool spring days.

This year the West Entrance to West Yellowstone National Park will open April 27^th.  Be sure to check West Yellowstone National Park’s opening and operations website for more details to many of the Park’s campgrounds and scenic areas. Click here for opening and operations info.

You’ll pass right by us on the way to the West Entrance via Hwy 20. Old Faithful is waiting for you.
