YELLOW STONE CALDERA
My Assignment is to blog about a volcano, in my case, the YellowStone Caldera.
The YellowStone Caldera is located in Wyoming, USA. Its massive walls extend 28 by 48 miles. It is located on a continental hotspot, directly above a pocket of magma underneath the surface.
Although the YellowStone Caldera hasn't had an eruption in 70,000 years, it is still active. The caldera is home to mudpots, geysers and boiling hot springs, bringing in crowds of tourists every year. The surreal and immense beauty of the YellowStone Caldera cannot be matched.
