I think that is an excellent point - water rushing up does not shoot up in the air like that - something is propelling that.

We may be wrong in assuming this. Be nice to see Grayhairs or someone who might be more of a technical expert on this stuff.

Water needs only a pressure of 120 PSI to stay liquid at that depth where the temperature would be around 350 degrees. The high temperature water would flash into steam when released into the atmosphere. 200' is a piece of cake, you do not need natural gas to drive the geyser.

If there is such a pocket of naturally super hot water, they have a natural for a steam powered electrical generator. There is money to made from that too.
