Notes: |
Geysir, Iceland - Geysir, Iceland - Blesi (the blazer) is a hot spring pool at the Geysir Area. In the background Strokkur, or 'The Churn," can be seen erupting. Strokkur is a geyser that is situated in the geothermic region beside the Hvitá River in Iceland. Strokkur is only a few metres away from Stóri Geysir, or "Great Gusher", once the most powerful geyser of the group. However, unlike Geysir which erupts infrequently and may be dormant for years at a time, Strokkur erupts very reliably every 5-10 minutes, hurling boiling water to heights of up to 20 metres (70ft) towards the sky.
