[Geysers] Another vent at Morning

YYou know, there are three holes out in the Morning area, Morning,  
Morning's Thief, and a third hole just behind Morning with no name I know  of.  I 
often wondered if the third hole ever erupts.  You can see it  on Google 
Maps, just zoom in.  Maybe back then Morning, Morning's thief,  and the third 
hole all erupted together."
 
 
I ask if Steve's "behind Morning" is as seen from the overlook, or from  
where? No map that I have, nor the personal experience of having been out 
there  (yes, it was years ago, in uniform), had a spring where I would say 
"behind  Morning." There is, however, a feature near Morning's far northwest 
corner.  Eruptive activity is known from this vent, in at least the 1980s and in 
 1991. I haven't heard it mentioned in 2012-2013.
 
Note that interestingly, and I think surprisingly, neither this vent  (#12 
of Paperiello in his Transactions IV article) nor Morning's Thief (Rocco's  
#11) is shown on the USGS Thermal Map.
