Will started gazing in the fall of 2011. Will currently works the summers at the Old Faithful Lodge Front Desk. When in the park Will enjoys to spend most of his time watching and studying Fan & Mortar Geysers. Although, you may find him cruising around the Upper Geyser Basin when Fan & Mortar are not due to erupt. When not in the Park Will enjoys partaking in skiing, climbing, hiking, running, and watching the Old Faithful webcams when time allows. Also Will currently studies Mechanical Engineering at Montana State University (GO CATS!) in Bozeman, MT.
