Under proper lighting this spring shines like the blue-green gemstone, beryl. Its activity, and that of the adjacent springs, was greatly altered by the 1959 earthquake. The violent agitation of the water is due to volcanic gases, mostly steam. The temperature of the water is usually a few degrees below boiling. It generally oscillates between 188.5 degrees Fahrenheit and 192 degrees and is one of the hottest springs in Yellowstone.
