[Geysers] Scavenger hunting

[GOSA Store]

Another purpose would be to backfill the GOSA website which lists many
geysers with missing photos.  Many also lack descriptions, what to look for,
etc..  Since several photos can be uploaded for each some historic pix could
be mixed with more modern ones.  Geyser Hill's first page
http://www.gosa.org/searchresults.aspx?pParams=1
<http://www.gosa.org/searchresults.aspx?pParams=1&pField=YNP&pBasin=UPPER&pC
omplex=GEYSERHILL> &pField=YNP&pBasin=UPPER&pComplex=GEYSERHILL is missing
pix of Beach Geyser, Bench Geyser, Big Cub Geyser and Borah Peak Geyser for
example.  I know there are pix of Big Cub out there.  So if one of you would
like to collect them and modify them for web page display we could all see
them as well as share them online with the public.  I'd be happy to upload
website ready pix, after I return from the Park, of course.  If you'd like a
list of missing pix to help with this effort, I will be happy to send you
the spreadsheet.

 

BTW, GOSA Store will be closed from 6/23 until 7/11 -- Gone Geyser Gazing.

More especially, I have photos of several if the geysers listed below. Most
would need to be scanned, but I'll attach one (over 600KB) of Spectacle.
Question: for what purpose are these photos wanted?

   I didn't mean to give anyone the impression that I have any grand plans
with this beyond a game of inverse name-that-geyser--you know, about the
same purpose as the holiday slideshows we used to have on the third floor of
the Inn.  I definitely don't want anyone to go out of their way for this
unless they feel like showing off their stuff.

 

   The list consists mostly of features or fixtures that I've personally
either never seen or never seen a picture of that I can remember.  I figured
they'd be of interest to a good portion of the listserv readers as well, and
so pursued the inquiry here rather than through more direct channels.

 

   Thank you to everyone who's replied so far for the photos, the insights
into the old pictures and videos from the web, and the set of subtly
different but hopefully reconcilable Giant eruption lists.
