I clicked on the Yellowstone webcam link -here--


Some screen captures of the activity below. Hope you enjoy. The geysers were predicted to erupt at that time, so I'm not suggesting anything at all.

Looks Normal. You are looking at the Upper Geyser Basin. :-)

The more exciting part, is if old geysers will return to function, or if current ones change behavior.

Sorry, I am a geek. I love geysers and the like.

Thank you. I was just excited to have finally latched on to the site at the moment they were blowing their steam

Awesome picture!...

I'm stopping by Yellowstone after I visit Mt Saint Helens, Rainier and Olympic National Park... hopefully there are no big events while I'm in blast radius!

Here's wishing you a positive memorable trip! Aren't the parks about to close for the winter season?

They always do. You should see it in the morning.

One of my fondest memories there is early morning steamy fog while walking on the boardwalk. The rising Sun made the fog turn golden.

Although peak season has passed, most US national parks (possibly all of them) stay open year round...
Certain park entrances may close on specific dates (I think the entrance to Yellowstone through Cody, WY is or will be closed soon) and then there are weather based closures...my recent visit to Crater Lake Nat'l Park was cut short- 5 inches of snow closed N Rim drive
