Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Black Hermit Cauldron, southern Back Basin, southern Norris Geyser Basin, Yellowstone Hotspot, northwestern Wyoming, USA on 9 August 2011. (looking ~SSW)

This acid hot spring consists of two overlapping craters, usually filled or nearly filled with hot to very hot water. Observed behaviors include light bubbling-boiling action, heavy boiling, overflowing, surging, and small, splashy bursting. The water is usually opaque and ranges from pale blue to grayish to gray-brown to dark gray to black.

A steep hillside composed of Upper Pleistocene glacial till occurs on the southern side of Black Hermit Cauldron. The flats on the northern and northeastern sides of the spring consist of the same till, plus Upper Pleistocene disrupted kame deposits.
