A geyser (like Old Faithful in Yellowstone Park) is a spray of water and steam. It would extinguish most fires.
Lady Knox is the tallest geyser in the World and New Zealand.Nope: it's Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone N.P.Actually, Waimangu of New Zwaland, was the tallest Geyser, but it got extinct after getting destroyed by a landslide in 1994. Its eruption was recorded between 600-1000 feet. But the existing tallest geyser is, yes , Steamboat of Yellowstone N.P, USA , which has eruptions from 250 to 390 feet.
The correct spelling is "guiser." It refers to someone who dresses in costume, typically for a festive event or celebration, like Halloween or a parade.
geysers are natural formation from the earth that periodically release a large amount of water straight into the air at a rapid speed, just like the geyser "Old Faithful".
Geysers like "Old Faithful" and "Steamboat" in Yellowstone are natural hot springs and the area is a permanent magma "hot spot." Due to the close proximity of the water therein to the magma under the Earth's surface, the water feeding the springs gets hot enough to boil in large quantities, causing steam to burst upwards through the Earth's crust. If a tea kettle was the hollow area of a hot spring, the spout would be the geyser. Imagine the heat of a stove as the heat from the Earth's magma; eventually the water gets hot enough to boil and the steam shoots out of the spout.

Only about 70 miles to the border, about 100 miles to Jackson Lake, but it will take 2 or 3 hours to drive because of the 40mph limit, winding roads, and even longer if you stop for the sights (like Old Faithful).
We timed it perfectly! The geyser erupted just as we arrived and we were able to take a great photograph.The geyser ran like clockwork, every day at 3pm it would explode with hot steam and water.A geyser is a true natural spectacle, definitely something to see before you die.
Geothermal heat from below the Earth's surface superheats groundwater until it basically boils over in the form of a geyser eruption.
A geyser much like a volcano is a mound or mountain of land that has something bubbling underneath the surface. Typically a geyser has water or hot springs that erupt up sporadically like a volcano.
