Geysers described as mouth of hell and power source
CALISTOGA William Bell Elliott called the Geysers the mouth of hell as he and companions found a steaming canyon near Cobb Mountain. The feature, dubbed The Geysers in 1847, grew into a geothermal power complex with eight generators planned to reach 302000 kilowatts, serving PG&E and signaling a major, pollution free electricity source.
