Hello all,

  I just watched the 1936 Yellowstone film mentioned by the Leanys. This is 
worth seeing, as it presents a "look back" to a Yellowstone very different 
from today. Among other things, it shows bears rummaging through hotel 
garbage and visitors walking between Rainbow Pool and Sunset Lake in Black 
Sand Basin.
  The film was also interesting as far as geysers were concerned. It 
provides footage of what Sapphire Pool and its eruptions looked like in the 
days prior to the 1959 earthquake. Among the other features I could identify 
included Spouter Geyser, Excelsior's runoff channels, Hymen Terrace at 
Mammoth, Grotto Geyser, and Jewel Geyser.
  And the close-up shots of a geyser in eruption are actually of Riverside, 
not Fan.
  Still, pretty neat though.
