Pink Geyser

Pink Geyser is a minor geyser in the Pink Cone Group on Firehole Lake Drive, in the Lower Geyser Basin. Like Pink Cone Geyser, its name comes from the pink tint of its geyserite cone, which is likely colored by manganese oxide and iron oxide. Pink Geyser is located 235 ft behind Pink Cone.

Eruption Pattern
Recent eruptions generally occur roughly every four hours, although longer and shorter intervals ranging from 2.5 - 11 hours have been recorded. Eruptions generally last 5 - 12 minutes, with bursts reaching 15 - 20 ft above the cone. Pink's vent is angled uphill, backwards from the road.

History
Pink Geyser was first described by the geological survey of ___.

No activity was recorded before the 1959 earthquake. After the earthquake, eruptions were erratic until the earthquake of 1983, which seems to have set its current eruption pattern.
