A Yellowstone Bloop-Bloop

 

The more I visit Yellowstone, the more joy I find in the little, unnamed features the park has.

This little bloop-bloop is in the same general area as the Mud Volcano and is highly likely connected to it. It attracted me because of the odd noises it makes.

I'm pretty sure the only way to record this noise without the accompanying human chatter would be to go there either very early in the morning or late at night. And even then . . .

Geyser with Pedant


It's the kind of stuff they warn you about in literature when you go into the park, but you never think you're going to be the one to run afoul of a geyser pedant until you do.

Other things we saw:

The Biscuit Basin closure. The road into the basin is closed since, well, this, and they have done nothing to clean things up, which I think is fine. You can see the destruction without even leaving the road.

This is new video of the event I hadn't seen before. So glad I wasn't there.
