Beehive Geyser
Fast Facts:
Typically, Beehive's activity is not predictable, but when eruption cycles start, intervals between eruptions can range from 10 hours to 5 days.
An average eruption lasts approximately 5 minutes.
Geysers are hot springs that erupt periodically. In Yellowstone National Park all of the ingredients needed for geyser activity are present; heat, water, and underground rock hard enough to withstand intense pressures.
