Castle in Yellostone is a flat out beautiful geyser that erupts every 12-13 hours and goes for approximately 20 minutes! The fire-hose-like spray that shoots into the air is unlike anything I've ever seen (considering yellowstone has 2/3rds of the world's geothermal features), and is so cool to watch it's hard to describe.
