[Geysers] EXTERNAL: Re: Steamboat Photos

[Freund, Udo]

Jack was kind enough to give me an 8x10 print of a similar photo many years ago.  The cloud in the middle left appears to be the same but a bit earlier in time.  Sadly the colors are not as intense as in the article (prints fade).  Which makes me think about all the other photo prints in the archives that to my knowledge are not on the web.  Sure would be nice if NPS could scan and post them with the slides before they fade any more.  And make them all searchable.  OK, I'm dreaming.  Whom do we have to beg to make this happen?  I'm not above groveling.

Thanks,
Udo Freund

While I would love to take credit for the last photo, it isn't mine.  It came from the NPS archives and I am 98% sure it was taken by Jack Crellin.  The eruption of Steamboat I saw in 1984 was clear blue skies, no clouds.

   The 2005 eruption of Steamboat reportedly lasted 15 minutes.  I'm no meteorologist, but I'm skeptical about whether that that's long enough for both the mostly-overcast sky of the first two photos and the mostly clear sky of the third.

   Anyway, the third photo was attributed to Mike Keller in this article:  http://www.nationalparkstraveler.com/2010/11/some-it-hot-interview-yellowstone-national-parks-geyser-guru-mike-keller7261.  If that's accurate, that would make it the Sept. 16, 1984 eruption.

To Jeff and Scott and others who are interested:

I'm surprised and a little puzzled that Scott says the third Steamboat photo found by Jeff on the Internet was taken by William Keller. In 2008 I paid Bruce Chase for that photo for the third edition of Yellowstone Treasures, assuming, of course, that he had taken it. The picture appears on page 231 of my book and should, at least, be credited to the right person.  May 23, 2005 was the date of the eruption, as given to me.

Any further comments would be appreciated. I try hard to correct anything erroneous in my guidebook.

I found the three attached photographs on the internet.  Two were on Wikipedia.

Can anyone identify the photographer(s)?  I will assume that the third photograph was taken by Mike Keller, since his name is associated with the file.

I like these photographs because they show the violence of the eruption, and also the tremendous volume of water that is being thrown out.

Enjoy,
