Did you know Idaho has a Geyser?

 

It’s true! Located in Soda Springs in Southeast Idaho it’s the world’s only captive geyser.

It was first discovered when drilling for a swimming pool almost 90 years ago.

Shortly after the geyser was found, the city of Soda Spring received a telegram asking them to turn off the geyser because it was throwing off the timing of “Old Faithful” in Yellowstone.

The geyser blows 70-100 feet into the air and is open to the public year-round with no fees.

 

Fun Fact: The water shooting out of the geyser is sparkling mineral water. 💦
