The greatest of thanks to Lynn and Ralph for the listings of known wild  
phase activity at Great Fountain.
 
I will note that Marler does seem to describe two wild phase episodes in  the 
Inventory:
 
"On  August 8th and 9th [1970] instead of completing the normal eruption 
cycle,  it began splashing from 10 to 15 feet in height about every 15 minutes.  
(This same situation was observed during  the entire day of August 21, 1967.)  
On the 10th all activity ceased and the water was down about 9 feet.  During 
the 11th and into the night there  was steady overflow, but no eruption.  It 
erupted at 7:45 a.m. on the 12th."
