[Geysers] late report

[Stephen J. Eide]

Greetings and Salutations

This is a short late report from late June.  You've already heard of all
the major geyser activity so I am only reporting a couple of little
issues.  On 6-24 I watched Fountian erupt at 950.  I saw Morning's thief
ie at 952 and moments after I noticed it it gave a big burst, about
thirty feet or so.  One of the tour guides walking up from the mud pots
told me he saw it and first though Morning had started but it was just
Morning's thief.  It later gave off a few fifteen foot bursts, but
nothing as big as that big burst.  Unfortunately, the two Fountian
eruptions I saw after that had the wind blowing from Fountain to
Morning's thief so I couldn't see Morning's thief at all during those
eruptions.

Sprite pool appears to be boiling a little stronger.  Not erupting as
far as I saw it, but the overflow periods are stronger with increased
boiling.  The pool has two vents in the bottom (I only remember one in
the past) and the active vent appears to be deeper and has less "junk"
in it.  Has anyone else looked at it lately and noticed any changes?
