And another one! On Wednesday, April 29, at about 12:28 PM MDT, there was another eruption at Black Diamond Pool (in Biscuit Basin, Yellowstone National Park)! This one was larger than Tuesday's event and sent muddy water and steam towards the camera, which sits on a remnant of the boardwalk that was wrecked by the July 23, 2024, explosion from the pool. This is perhaps the largest eruption of the pool since the 2024 explosion and is an important demonstration of hydrothermal hazards in Yellowstone National Park! 📹: This eruption at Black Diamond Pool occurred on Wednesday, April 29, just before 12:28 AM MDT. It is probably the largest such event to have occurred at the pool since the explosion of July 23, 2024.

JUST IN: Biscuit Basin in Yellowstone National Park has blown up, destroying a nearby boardwalk as tourists could be seen running to safety. According to Geyser Times, there were no injuries. A radio report noted: "First large pool at biscuit basin... large explosion... lots of debris. No injuries, calling geology to determine what happened." Biscuit Basin is now closed.

NEW VIDEO: A large #eruption was caught on camera in Yellowstone National Park on Wednesday. The eruption occurred at Black Diamond Pool, which saw a similar explosion that destroyed a nearby boardwalk back in 2024. The water in the pool shown averages about 148.5 degrees.

A small eruption at a Yellowstone National Park pool was caught on camera by a newly installed webcam over the weekend. The video shows the eruption blasting out of a thermal pool, sending water several feet into the air. A much larger hydrothermal explosion happened at the same location in July 2024.

🚨#BREAKING: Onlookers and tourists run for their lives as Biscuit Basin geyser erupts and explodes throwing hot boiling water and debris into the air 📌#Yellowstone | #Wyoming Watch as wild and frightening footage capturing crowds of tourists and onlookers desperately fleeing from a hydrothermal explosion at the Sapphire Pool in Biscuit Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. According to officials, the explosion occurred near Sapphire Pool, located just north of the famous Old Faithful geyser. The eruption sent a dangerous mix of steaming hot, boiling water, rocks, and other debris into the air, causing significant damage by destroying the surrounding boardwalk and scattering debris over a wide area. Yellowstone Park rangers have since closed off the area to ensure public safety. Witnesses describe the scene as chaotic and terrifying, with many people scrambling for safety. As of now, it remains unclear if anyone was injured or hurt by the explosion
