Biscuit Basin Explosion

Yellowstone Explosion: Hydrothermal Blast Sends Tourists Running

Yellowstone National Park Closed Following Tuesday's Explosion

Biscuit Basin Area Off Limits to Visitors Until Further Notice

A hydrothermal explosion occurred in the Biscuit Basin area of Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming on Tuesday, July 23 at approximately 10:19 am. The explosion sent dozens of tourists running for safety after a surprise blast of rock, water, and steam. The Biscuit Basin area of the park has been closed to visitors until further notice.

Several tourists captured video of the event, which shows a sudden eruption of water and steam from a pool in the Biscuit Basin area. The explosion sent rocks and debris flying into the air, and a large plume of steam was visible from miles away.

Park officials are still investigating the cause of the explosion, but they believe it was caused by a sudden release of pressure from the hydrothermal system below the surface. The hydrothermal system in Yellowstone is one of the most active in the world, and it is constantly changing. This is the first hydrothermal explosion to occur in the park since 2014.

There were no injuries reported from the explosion, but several people were treated for minor injuries from the rocks and debris that were thrown into the air. Park officials are reminding visitors to stay away from hydrothermal areas, as they can be dangerous and unpredictable.
