Tale of the Shark painting
While there are a lot of paintings on Old Faithful Isle, you’ll likely need to find the one of the shark tale. This is on a rocky peak near the upper areas of the island. Your best bet is to get into the center near the arch, and then just work your way south.
Murky pool – South East
