[Geysers] River Group

[Tara Cross]

A message from Tara Cross <fanandmortar at hotmail.com>

On July 31 I spent a little over an hour at the feature Jeff reported on and did not see a single eruption.  It's possible that the feature was affected by the strong winds that day.  Rocco Paperiello also suggested that perhaps it erupts in series.

> In the River Group on 22 July, we saw a series of eruptions coming every 19-22 
> minutes from the blue pool between Armored Spring and Brain Geyser (Brain 
> Geyser was dormant).  Durations were brief.  Maximum height was 8 feet.  Each

> The Screaming Alien were dormant.
