[Geysers] Help Needed--"Red Cone Geyser" [Stephens]

[Ralph Taylor]

This resembles Red Terrace in Sentinel Meadow.  I'm not sure by any means,
but it looks similar.  The area was burned in the 1988 fires, which might
explain the trees (more than are there now).

As I was scrolling through the Yellowstone digital slide file, I noticed a
picture of a hot pool near "Red Cone Geyser."  The picture was taken in 1964
by William S. Keller.
I have two questions:
1.  Can anyone provide a name and/or location for the pool shown in the
photograph?
2.  What information, if any, is available on "Red Cone Geyser."  (I looked
at Whittlesey's Wonderland Nomenclature.  Lee doesn't have an entry for "Red
Cone Geyser," and also doesn't include the name "Red Cone Geyser" in the
Appendix listing names of features that are obsolete.)
 
Here's a link to the photo:

Thank you for any information anyone can provide.
