Except for a very brief visit to Old Faithful, all my time was spent in the Lower Basin.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Yesterday's Fountain wild phase, now positively known to have started at 1512, continued until sometime after 2030 but had ended by early this morning.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>On Firehole Lake Drive, Pink was at 1340 (duration about 12 minutes), Box Spring at 1351. As viewed by steam cloud from Great Fountain, Narcissus was i.e. at 1445 and Labial at 1505 (it was having strong post-eruptive bursting at 1520).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Great Fountain was at 1437 (meter boil) following a short overflow of 76 minutes and then a pause of 6 minutes. The eruption was an "Adequate Fountain," perhaps as much as 100 feet high near the start that included a pretty good blue bubble.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Scott Bryan</DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
