Going down the grand stairway of this old hunting lodge, visitors must be very careful not to disturb the ferocious bear that guards the landing.

Oh well, there are always geysers to look at; this one is erupting in the Lower Geyser Basin, a few miles from Old Faithful.

The predicted time of the next eruption is on display in the lodge at Old Faithful Inn.
