Morning Geyser Details
The largest of the Lower Geyser Fountain Group, and one of the largest in the world, this geyser once experienced eruptions that measured over 200 feet high, and 100 feet across, lasting up to a half an hour, and occurring every four hours. Unfortunately, eruption frequency has greatly decreased over time, and the geyser is seldom active.
