Where fire and water meet. Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park
The highest concentration of geysers and hydrothermal springs in the world is located here in this corner of Yellowstone National Park, called the Upper Geyser Basin. They include what is perhaps the most famous geyser of them all: Old Faithful. But the Upper Basin contains many other geysers as well, including the tallest predictable geyser (Grand Geyser) and the most voluminous geyser (Giant Geyser). Yellowstone contains about 300-500 geysers, about two-thirds the number in the entire world.
