[Geysers] Fan & Mortar details, 8/28/10 and 9/5/10

[Tara Cross]

My sincerest apologies for the lateness of these reports.

August 28, 2010 (details from Dave Leeking)

Dave said he had taken shelter in the trees from a storm and missed a River pause and the beginning of Main Vent splashing.  These are his notes starting during the River pause:

1704 first Main Vent splash seen, splashing almost continuous until 1713 when it stopped
1713 Bottom Vent, d>6m, Main Vent seemed to pass the energy over to Bottom Vent
1719 River on, Bottom Vent quit sometime after
1724 Gold on, very good water levels from the start
1727 Angle on
1739 Lock
1744 Fan & Mortar
