Explosion warnings at Yellowstone as popular tourist spot is closed

A popular Yellowstone National Park attraction will remain closed to summer tourists as scientists monitor a rogue thermal pool that might blast again after a major explosion last July.

Biscuit Basin, a popular attraction among tourists that is usually packed with visitors has been sealed off from the public since a massive explosion in July, 2024, and will remain closed during the summer season.

Biscuit Basin, located just north of Old Faithful, erupted at around 10 in the morning last summer, sending a massive plume of boiling water and debris shooting into the sky - soaring hundreds of feet into the air.
