Mid 70's the erruptions lasted 7-10 minutes except for a disturbance
when they lasted nearly an hour. The water probably got 30' over the
vent. There was no upper platform.

The eruptions where about 5 feet above the uppper platform and lasted
3
minutes.
 I'm not sure how this compares.

Great news about Echinus!  Are the eruptions similar in height and
duration to the good old days?

	We visited Norris today, and we were surprised to find out
Echinus was active. This may have already been reported and I missed
it
, but just in case:. 

	 

	I looked in the log book and talked to the ranger. From the log
book, the first observed eruption was reported on July 11, at 13:13
(water was muddy).

	 

	According to the ranger, Echinus is going every 2-3 hours and
has been since the 11th of July except for one 12 hour interval on
July
13th. While we were there, Echinus erupted at 12:21 and 15:09 for an
interval of 2 hours 48 minutes. 

	 

	It was nice.
