About This Trail
This trail is named after the Biscuit Basin that used to surround it, and has geysers, mud pots, hot springs and local wildlife. The "biscuits" were blown away after the 1959 Hebgen Lake Earthquake. There is a blue pool in the park. The bright color contrast of mustard Spring and the excitement of the jewel geyser make for a great combination.
