[Geysers] Geyser report Frid June 6

[TSBryan at aol.com]

Well, not much of a report here. A really ugly day. Proof in the attached  
photo, taken just west of 7 Mile Bridge at 1230.
 
No changes down basin.
 
Riverside 0953.
 
Daisy 0747 and 0959.
 
Oblong missed while Jim was down by Riverside, presumably sometime around  
0800.
 
Grand 0238E and 0933.
 
Castle 0455E.
 
Lion 0752 and 0915.
 
Beehive in the night.
 
Plume 0627, 0714, missed, 0859, and 0948.
 
Old Faithful active.
 
Avoca Spring continues to erupt with interval less than 2 minutes long,  
durations of 15-20 seconds. Some jets reach perhaps 15 feet high but most are  
more like 6 to 8 feet.
 
The northernmost of the "Steel Bridge Springs" (those springs across the  
river just upstream from Steel Bridge) was active at 0652, splashing 2 to 3 feet  
high. Then, at 1010, the spring on the next sinter mound to the south was  
splashing to about 1 foot.
 
Great Fountain was still in wild phase early. I saw bursts at 0616 and  0631. 
One jet reached 30 to 40 (50? in a lot of steam) feet high. However, the  
durations were shorter than yesterday, being about 4 1/2 and 5 minutes. And sure  
enough, by 1026 (and 1034, 1041, 1042, 1051, 1055, and 1106) the action was  
erratic, generally lasted less than one minute, and consisted entirely of  
boiling confined to within the crater -- no bursting whatsoever. And so,  
(apparently) thus endeth the wild phase after something in the neighborhood of  48 
hours.
 
Now what?
