The mantle over the Yellowstone area is pretty thick, so it won’t being doing very much for a while.

How big of a volcano I believe is relative to the mantel that is being pushed up in red.
As you can see there is a huge plume that could create a huge volcano in the pacific.
Blue is mantel moving down.
