A new blue water spring has formed at Yellowstone National Park’s Norris Geyser Basin, discovered by geologists during routine maintenance, with its development attributed to hydrothermal explosions between late December 2024 and early February 2025. The feature, measuring 13 feet in diameter and surrounded by rocks, was not present in December but filled with water by mid-February, indicating the dynamic geological activity in the area.
