Botryoidal Spring
Appearance
Botryoidal Spring is a geyser in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park in the United States.
Botryoidal Spring is part of the White Creek Group which includes A-0 Geyser and Spindle Geyser. As its name indicates, Botryoidal Spring was formerly a hot spring. In 1996, seismic activity caused to change from a bubbling spring into an explosive geyser.
