The feature mentioned in my previous note has now briefly paused before returning to water phase. With energetic bursting 1-4 feet high. There is an interesting lack of chugging like I observed when I first arrived on the constant bench. |

A feature that has been erupting with a similar style to Whirligig's rooster tail vent about 50 feet to the right of Pinto from the bench right at the base of the hillside suddenly switched to a loud roaring steam phase at this time. |

I think this is the feature Scott calls Old Surprise Spring. It has been erupting every 10-12 minutes during our Fountain sit, but you have to judge more from the steam cloud because from the overlook it's over a small shoulder of land and it looks like the formation is a deep bowl. |

LKNN001 (= RCN database designation) in the Kaleidoscope Group, Lower Geyser Basin; = 1B/vent 1B of Wolf & Paperiello, 1989 (Report on the Kaleidoscope & Sprinkler Groups, pp. 2, 7-8); vent is located 7 meters north-northeast of Kaleidoscope Geyser & 9 meters south-southeast of the center of Drain Geyser; UNNG's vent is at 44° 33' 16.05" North latitude, 110° 48' 47.58" West longitude. I suspect this vent is the same as "Kaleidoscope’s Indicator Geyser". Blipping / low spouting. |

I thought "Waterfall Geyser" at West Thumb was in here - did someone give it a number? 3/4 full of blue, opaque water. Some bubbles rising in it. Also, "Dancing Geyser" continues to be full and blue and overflowing with microbes growing in the overflow channel. Thumb Geyser was half full, blue opaque water with orange microbes around the edges. The UTF behind Thumb Geyser that has been active for quite some time was splashing. And, I'll add in Percolating Spring here as well since it's not yet listed: No water at all - vent is still full of gravel (amazingly so - really wonder what happened there) Oil Slick is also probably not in here - no water, also no water in Ephedra or Perforated. Lakeside Spring had heavier than normal overflow. Bluebell Pool and Seismograph Pool are also still well below overflow. |

Second vent, west of feature under the doublet pool sign is growing its vent. Added about 1 square inch to the size of its vent in the last 15 minutes. Seems to have water levels connected to the doublet pool sign geyser, but at a cursory glance doesn't seem to relate in terms of eruption start/stop time. Two other vents have standing water that rises and falls with the erupting vents. |

Mammoth update: Grassy Springs flow stops around the near edge of the three way boardwalk intersection. Dryad is dry. Not even a puff of steam. Canary is extending more in the direction of Jupiter Terrace. Water is not filling the old vent. Decent flow down Marble Terrace. New Blue is pretty and flowing into the terraces. A small trickle is reaching the bottom of the hill. Narrow Gauge has great color to the far end. Orange Spring Mound is still flowing well from the end near the road. Prospect Spring still active, though flow much less than on my June visit and not threatening the road. Mound Spring is still flowing well. Palette is flowing well from the pool west of Devil's Thumb. Thankfully the flow is more away from the Thumb. The pool to the east of the Thumb is not overflowing the terrace as much as usual but appears hotter. The overflow is going south and west of that pool rather than over the side and is pooling hotter water. Cleopatra is unchanged. |

NGB: Increased cyclic activity from three holes up slope NNE from Incline G, just below the two grindstone looking mounds, with heavy forced splashes then a roar of steam, then quiet, repeated in waves. This appears to be very nearly in the same location as the blowout which occurred in Sept 1971 and will do some photo comparisons. Will keep an eye on it! - - -
Visible water also is pulsing out below the thick sinter at the base of the slope below the old roadway E of the Incline location. Farther south cool groundwater from the over full Nuphar area also continues to flow at a steady rate into the basin but the green algae growths are diminishing. - - -
Cross referencing this as an Incline Note also since finding things in Other Geyser is not always simple if you don't remember the year. |

Old Bellefontaine, Fountain Group, LGB. Water level down ~1', pool visible from boardwalk. Runoff channel toward Clepsydra is also dry. At 2012 it had not changed but by 2045 (after Fountain erupted) it had refilled to about 6" below the rim. |

hot ground turned steamy sinkhole near green dragon at norris smells like dirty wet socks with a hint of vomit of someone who recently ate processed pork. or maybe the towel bin at a ymca with a hint of elk carcass |
