<DIV>I am at the cabin in Oregon at the moment so I do not have the latest
photos and info. I have been watching this geyser for almost 50
years.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Spring/early summer Morning Mist eruptions start with a full pool that
has been in overflow for at least 6 hours. It is not unusual for it to
have aborted eruptions. They happen at the beginning of the cycle and are
like a giant burp that fills the pool with gold glitter and pine needles.
The pool (as always) then drains to about 8 feet and stays that way, slowly
filling for about a week.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>That said. It acts much like Artemesia. The right side of the
deep pool and eventually the center have large series of big bubbles (old time
silver dollar) slowly rising in groups of 3-10 bubbles then small doming when
thousands of small bubbles (dime size and smaller) erupt together. The
small bubbles are a prediction of eruption. Once it gets going it has three
areas of eruption, always starting to the right (stand on the end of the pool
180 degrees from the run off channel facing the pool. The majority of
large eruptions come from the center. The third area is to the left under the
overhang of the deep pool. The pool rises and falls, watch the biscuits on
the sides. Not quite pulsations like the Googles. As the end of the
eruption approaches this is quite noticeable like it is at Spa Geyser.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Spring/early summer eruptions can last for more than a day, sometimes
for three days or more. Lots of overflow! Pre-eruptive bubbles
rarely last for more than 4 hours. Most eruptions are in the 2-3 foot
range in the spring with occasional bursts to 6-8 feet. Summer/Fall
eruptions are much shorter in time but much higher (8-10 feet), last often less
than an hour and range in the 8-15 day interval cycle. Spring/early
summer are impossible to predict. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Once I am home I can refer to my notes and post photos if you want. I
have photos of the several geyser areas in that area and in the meadows
upstream of the OFL cabins I have taken.</DIV>

<DIV>Minds interested in them all want to know -- on Morning
Mist.........</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Were these distinct eruptive times, or some sort of "high points" in an
extended eruption?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Was the pool full and overflowing? If so, any idea as to how long it had
been in overflow.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any other details would be nifty.... er no, I guess "Nifty" is now used
as a UGB geyser. So it would be cool. Thanks</DIV>
