[Geysers] Geyser Report Oct. 24-27, 2010; F&M marker replaced this a.m.

[Bill Warnock]

Today was quite cloudy and overcast in the Park.  Temperature was 23 when I arrived at Upper Basin at around 0900; clouds lifted, and sun shone thru broken clouds at around 1100, but winds were  brisk, and the temp never got above freezing.  I saw a total of 5 people on Geyser Hill all morning, and I was the only car in the Old Faithful Inn/Lower Hams parking lots most of the day.  I'll start with 10/27 times:
