[Geysers] ID of Mystery geyser 5

[Mike Keller]

Not meaning to get too technical, but the geyser in image number 5 is NOT
Imperial Geyser.  Imperial Geyser is the vent in the large pool immediately
behind this feature.  They geyser that has been erupting since the late
1930's on the side has been assumed to be Imperial, but if you read the
historical records for 1928 and 1929 it is very clear that Imperial erupted
from the large pool, not a small vent on the side.

 

Still-it is a great photo!

I didn't think anybody would get my Mystery geyser 5, since it was a
"close-up" photo (so to speak). The picture was of ... tah-dah ... Imperial.

 

I have selected a set of additional slides to be scanned, but I won't even
get them into the place until (probably) next week. And I gotta go to
California for a couple of days in the interim. 

 

But here is a Mystery photo 6 that probalby won't require a whole lot of
thought (for some, anyhow).
