Great Geysir, only 20 m from Strokkur, in June 1997. The geyser was formed during an earthquake in 1294 and was active until 1915, then again after an earthquake in 1935 until the 1950s, and now again from 2000 to the present. However, it only erupts a few times daily with a fountain of about 10 meters. In 1997, it was just a small pool with a water temperature of 60 degrees. All geysers in the world have their name derived from this geyser.
