Vents break out and get re-sintered over every year. While the current "Dwarf" erupting 90% of the time has shown that it's definitely more "stable" than the other vents in the complex. I would not put my chips down as to whether that would remain the case, the same goes for the Dwarf seen erupting near the boardwalk. Thus I agree that we should refrain from naming individual vents when they could be gone within a year. </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Just my thoughts on the matter</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div></div><div> </div><div><div>Micah Kipple <br>Enjoy the Little Things! <br></div></div></font></span></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br> Geysers mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Geysers@lists.wallawalla.edu">Geysers@lists.wallawalla.edu</a><br> <a href="https://lists.wallawalla.edu/mailman/listinfo/geysers" target="_blank">https://lists.wallawalla.edu/mailman/listinfo/geysers</a><br></blockquote></div></div>
