As someone who, at age 60 has never been and will most likely never have the opportunity to go here, these videos are priceless and beautiful. Isn't planet Earth simply amazing?

[@sandilou2U]

The ebb and flow was unexpected. It reminds me of ocean waves. I appreciate those involved in providing these ASMR videos. Brilliant idea!

[@COSolar6419]

I could almost smell it from memory alone.

[@whimsygrove9971]

I love this one. The sudden big bursts and then the slow even bursts really gives it a soothing, rhythmic sound. I could watch and listen to this for hours.

[@oldman8268]

Beautiful sounds, but no yelling at each other. Must be the old Congress.

[@IncognitosRandom]

Cool stuff

[@johnbeckwith8313]

I see why it's named Congress pool. Blowing off steam and getting nothing done😂

Have they ever found remnants of geysers at the old sites where the hotspot used to be? I wonder about the mineralization at such places.

[@usgs]

Not remnants of geysers specifically, but certainly there is evidence of hydrothermal activity at those older systems where the hotspot used to be located. And it is through the mineralization, as you suspect. For example, there are deposits of things like mercury at McDermitt Caldera (which was where the hotspot was located 16-17 million years ago), indicating a vigorous hydrothermal system at one time.

[@benwinkel]

@@usgs Thank you. It's wonderful to learn these things. Makes one wonder what elements and minerals are being deposited in the active systems today.

[@sparky955]

Wow, that is seriously beautiful & terrifying! Was this a particularly active day for it or is that normal?

[@usgs]

Normal day

[@sharon94503]

It looks like it use to be much bigger. How long do you suspect it has been happening?
