Norris Geyser Basin

Norris Geyser Basin comprises Porcelain Basin and Back Basin, accessed through two connecting loops. If the world's tallest geyser, Steamboat Geyser, isn't erupting (it probably isn't), continue around to the explosive remains of Porkchop Geyser and the appropriately named Vixen Geyser, whose random machine-gun eruptions will beguile you.
