[Geysers] How Many Eruptions in Mugwump Series

[Karen Webb]

We saw mainly doubles, but the quality really varied day to day. Most 
often, we saw sort of a wimpy first burst (which nevertheless could have 
great "firecracker" steam explosion sound effects) followed by an 
excellent second burst OR two excellent bursts, ie, the play during any 
given hour or so of observation stayed fairly consistent.

I did notice the difference in pre-play disturbance of the pool shortly 
before both Mugwump and Three-Crater (also the UNNG toward the front of 
the pool) and how very different they were. I guess I was figuring 
"great big pool, multiple vents, wave motion is wave motion" but was 
surprised at the way you could tell which vent was imminent just by what 
the surface of the pool looked like.
