[Geysers] Re OFVC logbook

[Janet Johns]

Thanks Carolyn for being an excellent liason with the strange group called Geyser Gazers.  Have a great "break" and I will be looking forward to more scaned logs.  Again Thanks for all you do,
Janet Johns

Subject: [Geysers] Re OFVC logbook


I don't speak for the park service here, but I've read the recent postings about the OFVC logbook and sharing information, and would like to offer a couple of things.

Giving OFVC staff geyser information for the logbook is helpful for GOSA members and our staff both, and I hope we can receive as much information as possible (and as soon as possible, so it can be part of the logbook scans I'm now doing once a week).   Our staff could use that information on geyser walks, and all would benefit from having it.  

I'm sorry to hear that some information has not been accepted in the past and have let staff know they can place lists of times in my box and I will enter them when I can.  You're welcome to put my name on a list or envelope and I'll take it from there.  Some of the posts sounded like some incidents are a ways in the past, and I hope we can move past that.  Please do know that the visitor center can be so busy at times that it is very difficult to spend much time with any one person.  When Old Faithful is about to erupt is an EXCELLENT time to come in!  A few of us know some of you on sight and will try to hand you the logbook when we spot you.  If there are any specific problems you've had, you're welcome to e-mail me off the list and I'll do what I can.

Having said all this, I'm out of hours as a seasonal ranger shortly; my last day of the summer season is August 28.  And, I'll be out of the park for most of September.  I'll scan, and will enter lists of eruption times before I go, and after I return.

 
Carolyn
