Tucked away in the northwest corner of the Midway Geyser Basin, 197ft Fairy Falls is a
popular hike, largely because it's only a short jaunt from Old Faithful. Beyond Fairy Falls
the lollipop loop trail continues to a hidden thermal area at the base of the Twin Buttes,
two conspicuous bald hills severely charred in the 1988 fires. The geysers are undeve-
loped, and you're likely to have them to yourself - in stark contrast to the throngs around
Grand Prismatic Spring.
