West Thumb Geyser Basin - Yellowstone National Park
Das West-Thumb-Geysir-Becken ist das größte Geysir-Becken am Ufer des Yellowstone Lakes im Yellowstone-Nationalpark. Zum West-Thumb-Geysir-Becken zählt auch das Potts-Becken im Norden.
Die Hitze-Quelle der hydrothermalen Objekte dieses Gebietes liegt mit etwa 3000 m Tiefe relativ nahe der Erdoberfläche. Das Becken wurde durch einen Ausbruch des Yellowstone-Vulkans vor etwa 125.000-200.000 Jahren geformt. Später füllte sich die entstandene Caldera mit Wasser und dehnte so den Yellowstone Lake aus. Das West-Thumb-Becken ist etwa so groß wie der Crater Lake in Oregon, jedoch wesentlich kleiner als die Yellowstone-Caldera, die beim Vulkan-Ausbruch vor 600.000 Jahren an gleicher Stelle entstanden ist. Es ist somit eine Caldera in einer größeren Caldera.
The West Thumb Geyser Basin, including Potts Basin to the north, is unique in that it is the largest geyser basin on the shores of Yellowstone Lake. The heat source of the thermal features in this location is thought to be relatively close to the surface, only 10,000 feet down! The West Thumb of Yellowstone Lake was formed by a large volcanic explosion that occurred approximately 150,000 years ago (125,000-200,000). The resulting collapsed volcano, called a caldera (boiling pot or caldron), later filled with water forming an extension of Yellowstone Lake. The West Thumb is about the same size as another famous volcanic caldera, Crater Lake in Oregon, but much smaller than the great Yellowstone caldera which formed 600,000 years ago. It is interesting to note that West Thumb is a caldera within a caldera.

World's Largest Collection of Geysers
It's wonderland. Old Faithful and the majority of the world's geysers are preserved here. They are the main reason the park was established in 1872 as America's first national park—an idea that spread worldwide. A mountain wildland, home to grizzly bears, wolves, and herds of bison and elk, the park is the core of one of the last, nearly intact, natural ecosystems in the Earth's temperate zone.
Yellowstone National Park covers nearly 3,500 square miles in the northwest corner of Wyoming (3% of the park is in Montana and 1% is in Idaho). Yellowstone is open all year, though some areas of the park are inaccessible by car in the winter.
