The geysers in Yellowstone National Park are some of its most iconic attractions and heading the list of those iconic geysers is Old Faithful, once known as “Eternity’s Timepiece” because it was thought to erupt every hour on the hour. It apparently has never done that but the National Park Service does its best to predict eruptions for those who want to be there for the show. They always give eruption times with a caveat, + or – 10 minutes. Old Faithful generally erupts at 70 to 90 minute intervals and the eruption lasts from about a minute and a half and up to five minutes, spewing steam and water vapor into the air to well over 100 feet. The NPS was spot on for this eruption, predicted for 12:09 PM a couple of weeks ago. It’s first spurt was at 12:08:33; I took this about 10 seconds later and the show was over in three minutes. Sometimes if you blink, you miss it but after all, it is Old Faithful so give it another hour or so and you’ll get another chance to see the show.
