<div dir="ltr">Sunday, August 31, 2014<div><br></div><div>This geyser report includes eruptions I saw and eruption times reported via <span class="" id=":i2.1" tabindex="-1">FRS</span> radio or by other gazers.</div><div><br>
</div><div>I visited West Thumb this afternoon. The lake level is higher than normal for this time of year. <span class="" id=":i2.2" tabindex="-1">Lakeshore</span> geyser was under water and the lake water level at Fishing Cone was just below the side <span class="" id=":i2.3" tabindex="-1">bubbler</span>. King geyser was boiling during the 45 minutes I watched it, but did not erupt.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The water levels in the springs along the center boardwalk are the lowest I have ever seen them. Blue Funnel Spring at a little less than half full and Surging Spring at about half full had the most water. Perforated Pool was completely empty and <span class="" id=":i2.4" tabindex="-1">Ephydra</span> Spring was nearly empty. (By standing on the edge of the boardwalk, I could just barely see water at the bottom of <span class="" id=":i2.5" tabindex="-1">Ephydra</span>.) Percolating Spring had just a small amount of water (maybe 10% full at most), Ledge Spring was less than 20% full, and Collapsing Pool was about one-third full.</div>
<div><br></div><div>After leaving the boardwalk area, I decided to try to catch Lone Pine, which rewarded me with an eruption a little over 2 hours after I arrived. While waiting for Lone Pine, I saw 5 eruptions of Occasional with the 4 closed intervals ranging from 18 minutes to 29 minutes.</div>
