Labial Geyser is a cone-type geyser in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park in the United States.
Labial Geyser is part of the Pink Cone Group. Other geysers in this groups are Bead Geyser, Box Spring, Dilemma Geyser, Narcissus Geyser, Pink Geyser, and Pink Cone Geyser.[2]
Eruptions of Labial Geyser last for less than two minutes and are 25 feet (7.6 m) high. The usual interval between eruptions is 6 to 9 hours. On occasion, an eruption will be followed within 30 minutes by a second eruption.[3]
Labial Geyser has two satellite geysers that react to Labial eruptions but have been seen to act independently as well. Their intervals are not predictable with durations of less than a minute. The east vent reaches 6 feet (1.8 m),[4] while the west reaches 10 feet (3.0 m).[5]
