[Geysers] Giant, and Fan & Mortar, sometime

It was a busy predicting morning (1/14).  Besides the downloads (just one Castle minor in the last 5 days, this morning in the wee hours)...
 
The Giant sign was washed about 30 yards down the runoff channel; the danger sign was upside down, but not pushed all the way to the lower level.  The platform and a ways down the boardwalk was ice; the most-recent-eruption sign could not be updated because of its icy surface.
 
And at Fan & Mortar, there were just small snow patches left, no marker, and icy boardwalk starting past Spiteful.  If you drew a line from Fan through Spiteful, that's where the ice began, and covered snow between Fan and the trees towards the picnic table (if you could detect the table for the snow, that is).  Makes you wonder about that persistent eruption in the Daisy area on Saturday.
 
I was gone Friday through this morning, for a Yellowstone Institute course on bison.  Had Norris to myself for an hour Friday morning... beautiful, though not much to report about geysers.  Congress Pool was about 1 1/2 to 2 feet below overflow.  Steamboat's vents were fairly weak, and not concerted.
 
Beehive's indicator is apparently erupting now, 1126.
 
Which means also, back to the desk for me,
