[Geysers] Geyser report September 27

[Chase Ellison]

One quick note on the 9/25 giant recovery hot period. There was  
enough overflow  to cover 90% of india from mastiff however do to  
steam we were only able to catch once quick glimpse of mastiff about  
1 minute into the hot period. total duration of about 10 minutes.
