Union Geyser, with its three conspicuous cones, lies on the south end of the basin. Though its eruptions are rare, an occasional backpacker is treated to a spectacular sight. All three cones erupt simultaneously. The center cone sometimes reaches a height of over 100 feet.

250-foot Union Falls is one of the most beautiful waterfalls on the planet! It's really two falls in one. Two creeks come together at the brink. Water from the right-side creek fans out, forming a delicate veil over an ominous rock face, while the second creek shoots in from the left side.
