| Grand Prismatic Spring (left) and Excelsior Geyser (right). Grand Prismatic Spring displays a stunning rainbow of colors created by species of thermophilac (heat-loving) bacteria that thrive in narrow temperature ranges. The blue water in the center is too hot to support any bacterial life, while the outer orange rings are the coolest water. Grand Prismatic Spring is the largest spring in the United States and the third-largest in the world. Midway Geyser Basin. Image ID: 13571 Location: Midway Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA | Steam rises above the Midway Geyser Basin, largely from Grand Prismatic Spring and Excelsior Geyser. The Firehole River flows by. Image ID: 13605 Location: Midway Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA | Excelsior Geyser, now dormant, was formerly the worlds largest geyser. It still produces immense runoff into the Firehole River: 4,500 gallons per minute, or 6 million gallons per day. It is located in Midway Geyser Basin.
