No doubt others are poring through those hundreds of USGS photos, finding
neat things but also finding errors. Such as images 451-453 being labeled as
Pearl Geyser at Norris but actually showing Spike Geyser at Heart Lake.
Question: is the "Lesser Emeral Pool" (image 473) at Black Sand Basin
actually Green Spring? I think so.
I also see of interest that a Jackson image in Sentinel Meadow (view looking
south from Flat Cone in ?1883) is labeled as being in Queen's Laundry, as if
that was the name used for the entire Sentinel Meadow area. This (along with
misidentifications) brings up the question: Who produced the captions for
these images? Are they original, or developed now by the USGS people as they
produce these digital images from the originals?
