Boiling River in Yellowstone really starting to boil!

ping it

I am going there in June.

What it says "These temperatures are too hot to swim in, explained park geologist Henry "Hank" Heasler, but dilution with cold water occurs where the Boiling River meets the Gardner. He said 120 degrees is the temperature considered "scalding," which can burn people, especially children.

Park regulations prohibit swimming in hot springs and runoff that are of entirely thermal origin. The prohibition is two-pronged — one, thermal features are fragile and can be damaged by human activity; and two, hot springs are dangerous because water temperatures can spike suddenly."

I went there as a kid and always wanted to take mine but with my luck we'll get there to see Old Faithful as the whole thing explodes.

You have a better chance of this exploding then the lottery.
