It's not the geyser. Almost the entire park (2.2 million acres) is sitting inside a caldera, which is basically the crater of an underground super-volcano. Read up on it here:Discovery Channel :: Supervolcano: What's Under Yellowstone?
Here is a small excerpt from the above:
The crater atop Mount St. Helens is about 2 square miles. The Yellowstone "caldera" — a depression in the Earth equivalent to a crater top — is some 1,500 square miles.
The 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption blew 1,300 vertical feet off the mountain, sent an eruption column 80,000 feet high in 15 minutes, ejected 1.4 billion cubic yards of ash detectable over 22,000 square miles, and killed 57 people.
But the last major eruption at Yellowstone, some 640,000 years ago, ejected 8,000 times the ash and lava of Mount St. Helens.
And that wasn't even the largest eruption in Yellowstone's prehistoric past.
