Yellowstone Park: Supervolcano

Yellowstone park sits on top of one of the biggest volcanoes on earth - in fact it is a supervolcano that has erupted several times with massive force over the course of the last two million years. Geysers like Old Faithful are a tell-tale sign that volcanic activity is going on just beneath the surface. The Independent published an article on supervolcanoes earlier this year.
