Behind those trees somewhere is the Steamboat Geyser.
According to the signs we saw, this geyser is the “world’s tallest active geyser.” It has “unpredictable, infrequent major eruptions of more than 300 feet,” and it erupts “every three days or fifty years.”
That’s quite the spread there. Every three days or fifty years.
Apparently, it last erupted on July 15. Darn. We should have planned our trip ten days earlier.
About Marie de Haan
Marie is a gifted pianist, playing since the age of nine. As a teenager, she composed mainly instrumental piano music. She released her powerful debut single, “I Am Broken,” on October 22, 2020, a song whose creation drew heavily upon the trauma she endured as a victim of childhood sexual abuse. Marie held a benefit concert on September 10, 2021, in Skagit County. A portion of the proceeds went to CrossRoads Youth Ranch; this local organization—through equine therapy—empowers “at-risk and sexually exploited youth to heal, grow, and thrive.” She has continued to write music: Christian, folk, and country. Marie loves hiking, gardening, and photography. The Pacific Northwest—where she lives with her husband—is the backdrop for her favorite activities.
