Jet Geyser Details
Located in the Lower Geyser Basin, this geyser is a part of the Fountain Group, which includes Fountain Geyser, Morning Geyser, Red Spouter, and Silex Spring. It is very close to a park road and a boardwalk path, and can be seen from a closer distance than most geysers in Yellowstone National Park. Eruptions are unpredictable, but generally occur around the same time as the eruptions of Fountain Geyser, and produces steam and 94 F water from a number of vents. These eruptions generally last about a minute, and measure about 20 feet high.
