Is the Yellowstone volcano a hot spot?

It is believed that 2.1 million years ago, Yellowstone 'Supervolcano' did erupt, it then erupted a second time and the last time it erupted was 640,000 years ago. In 2008, scientists measured high seismic activity showing that Yellowstone could potentially erupt again but hopefully not any time soon. But in proper answer to your question, Yellowstone spewed lava last 70,000 years ago and its most recent super-eruption was 640,000 years ago. Scientists say it is overdue for another eruption but this is all we know so far.


Is the Yellowstone caldera considered active dormant or extinct?

No I don't think so anymore. They allow visitors all the time.


Is the crater at Yellowstone Park a volcanic crater?

Yes, the crater at Yellowstone Park is a volcanic crater. It is a massive structure that has weathered in the tens of thousands of years since it was last active. That makes is a bit less than easy to identify it for what it is.The caldera is so large that it is classified as a supervolcano (the Yellowstone Supervolcano). It's about 35 by 45 miles is size, and you just know that when this thing went off, it buried hundreds of square miles of land under several feet of ash. It's been about 70,000 years since its last eruption, but it could reawaken at any time. We'll have some warning, but not a lot. And there is no way to stop it from doing what it does. A link can be found below for more information.
