[Geysers] Geyser photos

That is my guess also.  Phil Landis photographed Big Cub in 1986, I think.
If I recall correctly the last known Lioness was in 1952.

If I visualize boardwalks in the bottom photo (link), I picture Penta with
Spaz in the background.
 
I remember Phil Landis took a photo of either Big Cub or Lioness back in the
late 1980s. He was working for Rick Hutchinson at the time. I remember
seeing this photo somewhere in print and it looked like a Lion eruption. I
just can't remember if it was Lioness or Big Cub.

   Do you guys do requests?  I've always wanted to see a picture of Lioness
in eruption.  I've seen several old photos with the pool boiling and
overflowing (such as
http://libraryphoto.cr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/show_picture.cgi?ID=ID.%20Jackson,%2
0W.H.%20%20192 and
http://libraryphoto.cr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/show_picture.cgi?ID=ID.%20Jackson,%2
0W.H.%20%20193
<http://libraryphoto.cr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/show_picture.cgi?ID=ID.%20Jackson,%
20W.H.%20%20193> -- I think these are Lioness, yeah?), but have yet to see
photographic evidence that it actually erupts. 

   Also, several years ago I saw a picture of Daisy's Thief labeled "Dewey
Geyser."  It was a black-and-white print, I think in a book or report, but
I've forgotten where.  If I remember correctly, there was some note with the
picture about how Spelendid had recently become quiet but "Dewey" had
stepped up to take its place.  Anyone know the source?  It's the only
picture I've ever seen of it. 

   Speaking of mystery geysers, here's a fun one from the USGS archives that
I wasn't aware Jackson had photographed:

http://libraryphoto.cr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/show_picture.cgi?ID=ID.%20Jackson,%2
0W.H.%20%20653

   Try to picture it with a bunch of boardwalk and you may have an easier
time identifying it.
