[Geysers] More on Steamboat

[carolyn loren]

Here's what we've heard:
 
Steamboat was seen having minor eruptions as usual at 1100 yesterday, 1/21, by Mike Breyers of Alpen Guides.  At 1600 he could see a huge steam cloud as his coach was returning from Canyon towards Norris.  Once there, they saw Cistern near empty and still dropping.  The steam and noise were impressive at Steamboat.
 
He also noted that deep snow was still in place right up to Steamboat itself, and the blue ice around it was still intact also.  He, Erica Hutchins and two Xanterra guides (who talked with Mary Wilson) said they did not note any debris in the area as they would expect after a Steamboat eruption.
 
One or both of the Xanterra guides said there were just 6 feet of water left in Cistern at 1600 on 1/21.
