Biscuit Basin contains a small collection of thermal features. Shell Geyser is a continually boiling pool in Biscuit Basin. The golden sinter lining of the crater resembles the shell of a bivalve, hence the name. Before an eruption, water in the crater begins to rise and may boil. Heavy churning then occurs, setting off the first small, weak eruption. As the eruptions subside water begins to lower and drain back into the crater.
