Recent park activity includes staff removing 20,000 pieces of trash from hydrothermal areas. Meanwhile, Superintendent Cam Sholly is departing his role after eight years of leadership that began in 2018. The park continues to manage geothermal volatility following a June 13 explosion at Biscuit Basin and recent eruptions of the Giant Geyser.Why it mattersGeothermal instability is a recurring risk in Yellowstone, evidenced by the June 13 blast that created a 60-foot crack.

That blast produced a new boiling pool and a 60-foot long crack filled with boiling water, which was recorded by acoustic and seismic equipment. Separately, the Giant Geyser, the park's second largest, has erupted twice in the last two months. These events highlight ongoing geothermal volatility within the park's hydrothermal systems.Why it mattersHydrothermal explosions occur when superheated water flashes to steam, often creating Small Hydrothermal Explosion Hits Biscuit Basinhttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/another-hydrothermal-explosion-has-occurred-at-yellowstone-national-parkhttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/another-hydrothermal-explosion-has-occurred-at-yellowstone-national-park#u24886Sat, 04 Jul 2026 18:05:50 +0000A small hydrothermal explosion occurred early on June 13, 2026, at Biscuit Basin in Yellowstone National Park. The event created a new boiling pool and a 60-foot long crack filled with boiling water. Monitoring equipment captured seismic and acoustic energy from the blast.What's confirmed:A small hydrothermal explosion occurred at Biscuit Basin on June 13, 2026.The blast created a new boiling pool and a crack 60 feet long filled with boiling water.The explosion threw rocks several tens of feet and broke open the earth.Yellowstone Volcano Observatory monitoring equipment detected significant se Hydrothermal Explosion at Yellowstone's Biscuit Basinhttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/another-hydrothermal-explosion-has-occurred-at-yellowstone-national-parkhttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/another-hydrothermal-explosion-has-occurred-at-yellowstone-national-park#u16734Mon, 29 Jun 2026 01:46:26 +0000A hydrothermal explosion at Biscuit Basin created a 20-foot crater of boiling water. The event formed a new thermal pool and vents that produced intermittent spouts 20 to 30 feet high by June 18. Some water temperatures reached 200 degrees Fahrenheit.What's confirmed:A hydrothermal explosion occurred at Biscuit Basin in Yellowstone National Park on June 13, 2026.The explosion created a 20-foot crater of boiling water.The event resulted in a new thermal pool and vents.Still unconfirmed:The explosion caused temporary closures for safety assessments.
