[Geysers] Black Opal Pool

[Seeyellowstone at aol.com]

I am unable to get a photo on this email for some reason (likely lack of  
computer skills).  But we do not believe Black Diamond had an eruption this  
month.  Black Opal and Black Diamond have both cleared too quickly.   
Currently both pools are the clearest they have been since the last series of  
eruptions.  Black Opal is about 1/4 full of sediments and debris from the  
eruptions.  Most of this sediment is on the boardwalk side of the  pool.
 
As for Salt & Pepper, the ground is heating up considerably between the  S 
& P and the River.  There is also some minor heating between S &  P and 
Black Diamond. Personally, I will not be going in because of a shoulder  injury, 
but the guides will be watching the area and we will be posting photos  on 
the Yellowstone Tour Guides Facebook page.  There is a photo on our wall  
today of Black Opal taken 01/30/12.
