[Geysers] Giant August 2 eruptoion

[Paul Strasser]

The August 2 giant eruption did not include Mastiff, which boiled to a
maximum height of about 6 feet, but drained about 6 ½ minutes into the hot
period.  Giant erupted a few minutes later.  

 

There are videos from three different locations (200 foot marker, asphalt
trail, monkey cage) to confirm this, plus a few dozen gazer onlookers.

Somehow I have it in my notes that the eruption of Giant on August 2, 2004
was a "Normal function" _not_ accompanied by significant Mastiff. However,
photos that were posted by Debby Stahl (taken by her husband, Joe Erlanger)
appear to show Mastiff behind and fully as tall as Giant (so, "Mastiff
function"). Since I intend to use (with permission already received) one of
these photos in Transactions IX, I like to know. Was this Normal or Mastiff?
