Logipi Geyser was located near the base of Samburu escarpment. Travelers in the 1930s reported that the geyser was erupting at regular intervals, discharging large volumes of water. The height of the geyser reached 1.2 m. The water was rich with minerals and there was formed a sinter basin in the front of geyser.
Later the power of geyser decreased, it turned into perpetual spouter. An expedition in 1990 found here just boiling springs.
Logipi Geyser is included in the following list:

Recommended books
Geological Atlas of Africa
The aim was simple: to assimilate basic geological facts for each African country, in order to give the regional geologist a digestible starting point for future research. The book, which is printed in full colour on high quality, glossy paper, is in A4 format and organized into four chapters. … the book is very attractive to a wider audience and shouldn’t miss the office table community. The Geological Atlas of Africa is a worthwhile addition to the regional literature on African geology.
Geology of National Parks of Central/Southern Kenya and Northern Tanzania
This book describes the interrelationship between the spectacular geology of an area of East Africa that includes a branch of the rift valley, as well as giant freestanding ice-capped mountains and extraordinarily toxic, alkaline lakes, and some of the greatest concentrations of wildlife on Earth. It suggests that geological processes that have shaped the iconic landforms, including active volcanoes, may also be responsible for the unusually diverse speciation which characterises the region.
