Oops, major typo, it should have been September 12, 1988. No video footage was taken that I know of for that eruption. Lynn

cool. Worth checking YT or anywhere for
footage? (And 1999, right? 1099 is a form Mastiff would have had
to fill out to pay its taxes as an independent contractor) :-)

Karen,
The September 12, 1099 eruption of Giant was a Mastiff
function, with Mastiff going to at least 100 feet. It was
preceded by a normal hot period, with full activity from the
platform vents, then Mastiff surging, but then Mastiff kept
climbing even after Giant started.

For Paul:
LOL!!!
For Steve:
OMG do not denigrate your skills or the quality of the
image!! This is stunning and glorious and we all sat with
our mouths hanging open watching it. OK, drooling. Makes me
wish gazers had a saying for geysers they've either never
seen or missed for extended periods, similar to "Next year
in Jerusalem" (said at Passover as a Jewish tradition).
One question: With a Mastiff Function, is there not much
going on in the platform vents at the time Mastiff takes
off? Do you get sort of a normal hot period, and this starts
as the platform vents die down or do Feather and friends
just not start?

Re: [Geysers] Mastiff Function Giant?
Years ago I
made a short edited
video of the September
27, 1997 eruption of
Giant. Try as I
might, I can't find a
copy of it. As a
substitute I took my
recording of the
beginning of the
eruption, trimmed it,
and uploaded it to
Youtube.

It was a cool,
steamy morning, the
sun was obscured by
clouds, and the
cameraman was
incompetent. However,
it does give one a
sense of scale.

Just
writing to ask if
anyone has footage
of a Giant Mastiff
Function eruption?
I've found the one
that lasts about
4:41 seconds (you
can *really* hear
Rocco in the
background) on YT,
but it's so steamy
you can't quite
see water till
Giant actually
starts, and it's
difficult to
appreciate the
height. Sorry,
getting greedy in
my old age; I was
so sure we'd get a
Giant in August or
September (or, you
know, Giantess...)
Thanks,
Karen Webb
