08:02:31
<Kat> Appreciate the help - a little PT going on :)
08:03:15
<Kat> I see Dome is gracing us today!
08:04:18
<Kat> Morning all!
08:04:31
<ynpvisitor999®> morning Bill, Kat, Henry
08:04:33
<Bill> Morning all
08:04:40
<ynpvisitor37> We had a very nice Aurum while you were at PT
08:05:00
<Kat> :L) Sorry I missed it!
08:05:42
<Kat> :(
08:06:53
<Kat> LC
08:07:42
<Kat> Hey Jarno
08:08:48
<ynpvisitor999®> Bill, when you go to Norris again for a logger checkup, I think you'd have to replace the Steamboat logger's sensor besides perhaps the battery or so, as well as take a look at Echinus' logger. The latter hasn't been sending data since July 3
08:10:20
<Bill> The SB battery is new. I was just out there yesterday to swap the enclosure. Couldnt get a hold of any USGS folks to check it while i was out. Didn't know Echinus was a problem until I got back to the office.
08:10:25
<ynpvisitor999®> besides those two and Nuphar Lake's logger, they have been working fine
08:10:47
<Bill> I'll check when the last time the Echinus battery was changed. The sensor for Echinus was also out of the water, so it wouldnt have been useful data anyway
08:11:00
<ynpvisitor999®> lol
08:11:14
<ynpvisitor999®> good to know you're aware of it :)
08:12:02
<Bill> I'll be down there again early next week.
08:12:15
<ynpvisitor999®> :thumbsup:
08:12:49
<Bill> I'm so sick of that SB logger
08:13:31
<ynpvisitor999®> I can understand that, seen the issues it's been having
08:13:54
<ynpvisitor999®> Will's in the basin. Just logged WT 0756 in-basin
08:16:05
<Kat> AL
08:16:08
<Lori S> Hello Everybody. The cam moved
08:16:14
<ynpvisitor999®> morning Lori
08:16:59
<Lori S> The cam moved?
08:17:06
<Kat> Hi Lori
08:17:08
<Lori S> Dome
08:17:17
<Lori S> ?
08:17:19
<Dave from B™> It is a streaming cam occasionally:)
08:17:40
<Lori S> No, I mean the angle looks different
08:18:09
<Kat> :)
08:18:11
<ynpvisitor999®> I wonder if Steamboat's water sometimes gets into the logger's enclosure due to both heavy minors and major eruptions, causing it to do all kinds of weird stuff?
08:18:22
<ynpvisitor37> If the Inn moved then the cam has also :)
08:18:33
<ynpvisitor999®> morning Linda
08:18:59
<LindaG> Hello everybody, hello 😊
08:19:00
<Bill> ynpvisitor999®, doubtful. It's a pelican case, or something very similar
08:19:00
<ynpvisitor999®> Dome now
08:19:05
<LindaG> ynpvisitor999®, hi
08:19:09
<Lori S> Maybe my brain is screwed up. Highly possible
08:19:19
<Kat> :)
08:19:44
<Lori S> Hello Linda, Hello
08:19:56
<Kat> Hi Linda!
08:20:17
<Kat> LS?
08:20:28
<ynpvisitor37> Lori :)
08:20:53
<ynpvisitor999®> I see, Bill. Perhaps the logger itself was already toast when it came from the manufacturer
08:20:57
<ynpvisitor999®> morning Kevin
08:21:17
<Lori S> Hello Kevin, Hello
08:21:51
<LindaG> Lori S, 😊
08:21:58
<Kat> Nice Dome
08:22:34
<Lori S> LindaG, I ws singing that little ditty while making breakfast and Bob looked at me funny :)
08:22:35
<ynpvisitor999®> I don't really see LS putting out water
08:23:00
<Kevin L™🌵> Hi
08:23:08
<Kat> I think you are right Jarno
08:23:41
<LindaG> Lori S, that's funny, my husband is older than me so I sang it to him and he said dont sing shampoo commercials to me. So he knew
08:24:35
<Lori S> LindaG, :)
08:25:40
<LindaG> How has cam been?
08:26:05
<ynpvisitor999®> so far so good I think?
08:26:15
<Kat> :)
08:26:21
<LindaG> 👍
08:26:54
<LindaG> I'll be back for my shift
08:27:05
<Kat> Great!
08:27:26
<LindaG> See u in a little
08:27:41
<Lori S> :thumbsup:
08:27:52
<ynpvisitor999®> cya Linda
08:28:40
<Kat> Bye Linda
08:40:48
<Kat> OF taking her time...
08:41:34
<Kat> OF
08:42:37
<ynpvisitor999®> you should've said that earlier, Kat. Then it may have gone sooner :)
08:43:21
<Kat> LOL I will do that in the future!
08:43:34
<Lori S> Such a majestic geyser this time of day.
08:43:40
<ynpvisitor999®> as soon as the window opens, preferably :P
08:45:38
<ynpvisitor999®> ~3m23s, medium (if the eruption was 7 seconds longer, I had called it a long)
08:45:58
<Kat> I would still call it long
08:47:03
<Kat> There is no medium in the entry :)
08:48:08
<ynpvisitor999®> unfortunately not :(
08:48:10
<ynpvisitor999®> Dome ie
08:48:15
<ynpvisitor999®> late I think
08:48:22
<ynpvisitor999®> AB
08:51:00
<ynpvisitor999®> OT ie
08:52:05
<ynpvisitor999®> we probably missed Riverside
08:52:07
<ynpvisitor999®> morning Mike
08:52:38
<Mike J> Morning 9s. Morning everyone.
08:52:44
<Kat> I'm sure we did
08:52:52
<Kat> Hi Mike
08:53:48
<Mike J> Morning Kat
08:54:42
<Mike J> Continuing to hunker down in the air conditioning here. Another month or two of summer hibernation, hiding from the sun
08:55:11
<Kat> I think I'm gong to spend the last 2 weeks of Sept. in the park - camping. Thoughts?
08:55:24
<Kat> going*
08:58:11
<Lori S> Front country?
08:58:22
<Kat> Yes Lori
08:58:45
<Lori S> I'm partial to Pebble Creek
08:59:15
<Lori S> But it's a little far from geysers :)
08:59:52
<Kat> Need to check if it's still open. I like Madison for the closeness to Norris and UGB. But I love Tower or Pebble for Lamar!
09:00:22
<Kat> Even Canyon is a nice compromise.
09:00:42
<Lori S> Indian Creek is nice if you get a site at the back
09:01:12
<Kat> Never camped there.
09:01:40
<Kat> Bison in the basin!!
09:01:46
<Lori S> It has a little rise at the back lined with trees.
09:01:58
<Kat> Look at the people running!
09:02:21
<Lori S> Oh my
09:03:29
<Lori S> The age old question...how do they know where it's safe to walk?
09:03:32
<Henry V> Wait, that's the new geophysicist researching why Giantess hasn't erupted for so long
09:04:08
<Kat> I would get away from those people as fast as I could too!
09:04:14
<ynpvisitor999®> does the USGS employ bison nowadays to do their reasearch?
09:04:23
<ynpvisitor999®> research*
09:04:47
<Kat> Just stand there and wait!!
09:04:56
<Lori S> If I were over there by Lion, I'd boogy
09:05:07
<Kat> Me too Lori!
09:05:27
<Lori S> Oh geez
09:05:27
<Kat> I'm sorry stupidity!
09:05:46
<Lori S> eek
09:06:14
<ynpvisitor999®> I really hoped the bison would've stayed on the boardwalk. Wonder what the Geyser Hill tour group would do in that case
09:07:24
<Kat> OK = now letes walk toward him!
09:07:33
<Kat> lets*
09:07:50
<Lori S> sigh
09:09:42
<Kat> Dome
09:12:36
<ynpvisitor999®> this one made me chuckle: https://trib.com/outdoors/disappointed-tourists-one-star-reviews-of-yellowstone-national-park/collection_c187b398-5ced-5094-830a-1d1e6728e9a1.html?utm_content=bufferf9cc9&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=LEEDCC#11
09:12:42
<ynpvisitor999®> especially the last review
09:13:51
<Kat> OMG - there is no cure for stupidity!
09:14:08
<Kat> Lori - too cold to car camp??
09:14:16
<Kat> In September?
09:16:09
<Lori S> It will most likely be chilly, but you should get to hear the elk bugel at night
09:16:22
<Kat> :)
09:16:28
<Lori S> bugle?
09:17:03
<Lori S> Anyway, yes, have lots of layers. Beautiful that time of year though stiil lots of people
09:19:08
<Lori S> if we get fires, it could be smokey, but so far we rae doing k
09:19:26
<Lori S> *are doing ok
09:21:00
<ynpvisitor18> heard there's a fire at 7 Mile Hole area
09:22:52
<Lori S> saw that. did you all hear the Mt Holmes fire lookout burned the other day?
09:23:00
<Kat> Heard the same!
09:23:48
<Lori S> https://www.eastidahonews.com/2019/07/historic-yellowstone-fire-lookout-burns-down/
09:25:20

<ynpvisitor37> Daisy
09:30:58
<Kat> :daisy:
09:32:18
<Kat> Seriously? That's the first time since I took the cam I believe
09:32:40
<Henry V> Noticed the Washburn South cam has zoomed in on the canyon. Is that related?
09:33:23
<Henry V> Probably not
09:33:32
<ynpvisitor37> Ughh!! first since 0623
09:33:39
<Kat> I don't think so - different area
09:37:14
<Lori S> My cam says its up up but loads with the x?
09:38:33
<Lori S> Oh wait, it's wifi happy hour here in west
09:38:58
<Kat> :thumbsdown:
09:39:38

09:51:21
<LindaGt> Yay

<LindaGt> The cam loves me
09:51:49
<Lori S> LindaGt, don't get too excited yet
09:52:06
<LindaGt> Hehe
09:52:26
<Lori S> I have a cam!
09:53:09
<Lori S> Go Linda! :)
09:53:36
<Kat> It ;oved me until about 20 minutes ago - and then it spurned me! LOL
09:53:43
<LindaGt> 😊 and you doubted
09:54:01
<Kat> loved*
09:54:26
<Kat> Hi LInda
09:54:32
<LindaGt> It's real fickle
09:54:38
<LindaGt> Kat, hi
09:55:11
<Kat> Heyn there! How you doing??
09:55:18
<Kat> Hey*
09:56:09
<LindaGt> I'm good, running around trying to figure out what to do with 17 monarch caterpillars
09:56:37
<LindaGt> Not sure I have enough milkweed
09:57:29
<Kat> Well, that is a problem -do you grow the milkweed?
09:57:46
<Kevin L™🌵> I was wondering what you were doing with 17 tractors.
09:58:19
<LindaGt> Yes I do. But all my leaves have eggs or caterpillars. I need to get some from a friend
09:58:33
<LindaGt> Kevin L™🌵, 🤣
09:59:08
<Kat> Is it something that you can buy?
09:59:10
<LindaGt> And every day a butterfly lays some more.
09:59:30
<Kat> :) I love your pics on FB
09:59:50
<LindaGt> You can buy plants now. My girlfriend has a lot. I'll go tomorrow.
09:59:57
<LindaGt> Kat, thanks
10:00:15
<LindaGt> Oops I'll take cam
10:00:22
<Kat> Cam is all yours - I'm headed to the wildlife refuge to see birds today! :)

10:00:47
<Lori S> Bye Kat

<Cooper> Good morning everyone
10:01:30
<Lori S> Howdy Cooper
10:01:37
<Cooper> man OF ie early
10:01:49
<Cooper> Howdy Lori
10:02:30
<Lori S> Bet that caught some visitors of guard
10:02:38
<Lori S> off
10:02:54
<Cooper> The last OF must have been a Medium as it just went
10:02:57
<ynpvisitor31> Dome
10:02:59
<Kat> Nice
10:03:30
<Lori S> Cooper, it was. 7 min shy of a long, apparently
10:04:44
<Cooper> at least, I think OF just went
10:04:59
<LindaGp> Water for dome
10:05:18
<ynpvisitor6> OFVEC has not updated their prediction
10:06:03
<LindaGp> Oh I guess people are leaving
10:06:09
<Lori S> Cooper, cam was just freshly back up when you came in
10:06:27
<ynpvisitor6> what are people doing?
10:06:42
<ynpvisitor6> VEC updated now
10:06:43
<Cooper> Thanks Lori
10:07:05
<LindaGp> Sorry just catching up to everything
10:07:42
<Lori S> LindaGp, that's the story of my life
10:07:50
<Lori S> oh crud
10:07:57
<LindaGp> Lori S, 😃
10:09:20
<Lori S> I just finished off a whole sleeve of saltines without realizing it. I don;t suppose that's healthy. :)
10:09:36
<LindaGp> Up
10:09:54
<LindaGp> No, but tasty
10:10:23
<Lori S> Now for the giant lemon water to make it all swell
10:10:46
<ynpvisitor18> I usually eat a whole thing of Zesta crackrs :)
10:11:16
<LindaGp> I can't do thay anymore, salt really bothers me now
10:12:06
<Lori S> Te day I can't have salt will be just awful. I love pickle juice!
10:15:54
<ynpvisitor3> Sodium is good for you.
10:16:11
<LindaGp> To a point
10:16:41
<ynpvisitor3> Just like everything
10:16:53
<LindaGp> Moderation, moderation, moderation
10:18:27
<ynpvisitor3> More like read the label and if the second or 3rd ingredient does not sound like food don't buy it.
10:19:04
<LindaGp> How true
10:19:07
<ynpvisitor3> That is what let my Grandma live from 1899 to 1998.
10:19:35
<ynpvisitor3> A good doctor helped a bit

<LindaGp> I didn't see it
10:28:07
<LindaGp> So thatsbthe plan for south bubbler, are we just entering once, or if we know it stopped we can enter again?
10:28:36
<LindaGp> *so what's the plan
10:28:36
<Cooper> if we know it stopped oyu can enter it again
10:29:01

<Cooper> she is doing better every day, they are planning to move her to a Rehab facility to work on getting her memory back after 40 Minutes of CPR either today or early next week
10:34:42
<LindaGp> I think bubbler off to left
10:35:08
<ynpvisitor18> sentence structure is a little confusing!
10:36:10
<ynpvisitor999®> isn't 'Geyser' appended to the end of Beehive's South Bubbler on the entries page a bit redundant?
10:43:41
<LindaGp> bsb
10:43:41
<Cooper> Sout bubbler
10:43:56
<LindaGp> Enter it please
10:44:09
<Cooper> I got it

<ynpvisitor999®> Cooper, this entry (https://geysertimes.org/eruption.php?id=1113337) is duplicates 1842 in-basin
10:45:19
<Cooper> looks like BSB quit just as the webcam went down
10:45:45
<LindaGp> I can see it.frozen on my screen
10:45:57
<Cooper> Deleted

<Cooper> on the "/gt Lion" and only that
10:57:50
<LindaGp> My eyes deceive me
10:58:15
<LindaGp> Frozen
10:58:18
<Cooper> Why
10:58:50
<Cooper> is it just me or was there a bit of hazy steam coming out from indy
10:59:18
<ChrisO> my birthday balloons had more uptime then this camera ::sigh::
11:00:10
<Cooper> Castle
11:00:11
<ynpvisitor999®> Castle ie
11:00:14
<LindaGp> Castle
11:01:04
<ynpvisitor3> the cam is broke, I see water.
11:03:43
<LindaGp> Jinxed it
11:04:29
<Cooper> Off for 10 or 15 Minutes, be back soon.
11:04:30
<ynpvisitor3> It worked for longer then normal
11:09:19
<LindaGp> Just a quick.peak at bee
11:12:39
<Henry V> Ahh, my favorite homophone
11:15:22
<LindaGp> 15 min
11:16:44
<ynpvisitor3> Isn't this the day they let the Deer out to play, or is it the Antelope?
11:18:03
<LindaGp> Who let's them out, from where?
11:18:44
<ynpvisitor3> The game keeper, from the secret tunnels.
11:19:29
<ynpvisitor3> You know, the same ones the pipes for the geysers are run in.
11:19:34
<Lori S> But thye have to time it between geyser water flow in the tunnels
11:19:49
<LindaGp> Lori S, lol
11:19:54
<Lori S> ynpvisitor3, we were thinking the same thing
11:20:26
<LindaGp> I'd say castle is a major, still after phase after 29 minutes
11:21:01
<LindaGp> *20 minutes
11:21:16
<ynpvisitor3> Look at the grass blowing in the wind.
11:22:54
<ynpvisitor3> Well, bee is out of time. Enjoy when they let the animals out.
11:22:55
<LindaGp> Geez can't type. Water phase still at 20 minutes
11:23:18
<LindaGp> ynpvisitor3, bye
11:23:22
<Cooper> back
11:23:29
<LindaGp> Wb
11:23:34
<Cooper> thanks
11:23:47
<Cooper> oh good, I did not miss Bee
11:24:16
<LindaGp> Just hit steam phase
11:24:39
<LindaGp> I posted as a major
11:25:01
<ynpvisitor112> already posted in basin
11:26:15
<LindaGp> Then we agree 😊
11:27:19
<LindaGp> Ok we should be safe, bee is quiet
11:27:57
<LindaGp> OF in window
11:31:05
<Lori S> Off to walk the doggo. C U later.
11:31:20
<Cooper> bye Lori
11:31:31
<LindaGp> Bye
11:38:38
<LindaGp> Hi kittyM
11:39:10
<Cooper> OF
11:39:15
<LindaGp> OF
11:43:04
<Cooper> Daisy Window
11:43:20
<LindaGp> Yup
11:44:01
<LindaGp> Bsb
11:44:08
<Cooper> BSB
11:44:12
<Cooper> quit
11:44:13
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> I don't see it
11:44:21
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> oh
11:45:08
<LindaGp> I thought it was there for a second or two
11:45:26
<Cooper> Well it was for a little bit
11:45:45
<LindaGp> Ok so I'm not imagining
11:46:14
<Cooper> Daisy near end
11:46:16
<ynpvisitor999®> Daisy near end
11:46:17
<LindaGp> Daisy
11:47:43
<LindaGp> Geez wanted to check bee before waiting for daisy
11:54:41
<LindaGp> Dome
11:54:53
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Nice!
11:54:58
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> is that ini?
11:55:03
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> looked like it from that burst
11:55:21
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> ohh, guess not
11:56:00
<ynpvisitor999®> it's far from the initial, Eric
11:57:44
<Cooper> AB
11:59:12
<LindaGp> I haven't seen little squirt in quite awhile
11:59:39
<Cooper> How about a Cascade, NOW
12:00:28
<LindaGp> Nope
12:00:36
<LindaGp> 😉
12:09:30
<ynpvisitor999®> Cistern is empty and dry. Steamboat is quiet. Emerald barely in overflow. Tantalus boiling from 4 points and has 15+ small bubblers
12:10:31
<LindaGp> Bsb
12:10:59
<LindaGp> Little bit
12:19:19
<Cooper> Bee might go without an indicator
12:19:21
<Cooper> Yup
12:19:49
<Cooper> YAY
12:19:57
<LindaGp> Bee
12:20:21
<Henry V> Good call
12:20:40
<Cooper> Thanks, nice one, and still no indicator
12:21:28
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> woops
12:21:47
<Henry V> If there's no Indicator, then the Beehive eruption didn't happen, right? :p:p
12:21:49
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> forgot to turn my sound on here :-(
12:21:50
<Cooper> I always enjoy a nice Beehive without an indicator every now and then
12:21:56
<LindaGp> It just went no bubbler no indy
12:22:13
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> still no indy?
12:23:14
<LindaGp> No
12:23:28
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> hmmm, interesting
12:23:51
<LindaGp> There was a brief time when I thought i saw Indy when bee burst out but then it disappeared
12:24:08
<LindaGp> So we'll have to look at a recording
12:24:45
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> haha...I see a white entry and know Will has to be in basin :-P
12:25:14
<LindaGp> Well that was eruptive 😊
12:27:51
<ynpvisitor999®> Dome ie, same as 1224 ns in-basin
12:28:04
<LindaGp> Will gets around, posted dome
12:42:56
<ynpvisitor37> FYI, per recording no Indy before, during or after Bee
12:43:37
<ynpvisitor999®> Aurum
12:43:38
<ynpvisitor999®> .
12:43:39
<ynpvisitor999®> .
12:43:39
<ynpvisitor999®> .
12:43:49
<Dave from B™> woohoo
12:44:02
<Dave from B™> and, it's over
12:44:46
<LindaGp> Ok so how dis you see that and i didnt?
12:45:20
<Cooper> 37, where do you get the recordings
12:45:27
<ynpvisitor37> I saw it also :)
12:45:48
<Cooper> is the recording on GOSA???
12:45:57
<LindaGp> I needed to refresh so I guess camera was running just not for me. Dang
12:46:32
<LindaGp> No not yet cooper. Joe records
12:46:40
<LindaGp> He has the power
12:46:42
<Cooper> oh
12:46:45
<ynpvisitor37> Nope, I do my own recording
12:47:00
<LindaGp> ynpvisitor37, Oh inthought you were joe
12:47:13
<LindaGp> ynpvisitor37, thanks for update
12:47:56
<Cooper> what do you use to record eruptions???
12:48:15
<ynpvisitor37> I am, just have not changed my name :)
12:48:38
<LindaGp> You are trying to trick.me
12:49:10
<ynpvisitor37> I use FFMPEG
12:49:40
<Cooper> Thanks
12:50:08
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Thanks 37...interesting to have a completely indyless BH
12:51:32
<ynpvisitor34> You were too fancy for Indy.
12:53:34
<ynpvisitor37> Bee saw Eric's Fancy name and said, I not show you my indicator :)
12:54:46
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Pump
12:54:59
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Yep, apparently my fancy name can cause geyser dormancy!
12:55:10
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Since indy is now dormant!
12:55:33
<CraigC> hey folks
12:55:41
<Cooper> Hey Craig
12:55:41
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Hi Fok
12:55:44
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Folk
12:55:53
<CraigC> hey Cooper
12:55:58
<CraigC> hey Eric :)
12:56:09
<Cooper> Did you just go to YNP?
12:56:15
<CraigC> yep
12:56:28
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Did you get that SB Craig?
12:56:30
<Cooper> how was it
12:56:31
<CraigC> nope
12:56:37
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> :-(
12:56:40
<LindaGp> CraigC, hi
12:56:45
<Cooper> did you get Bee? and Lion?
12:56:46
<CraigC> sat all night all alone
12:57:01
<CraigC> hey Linda
12:57:29
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> oh no...don't tell me you left at 5am!?!?!!
12:57:37
<CraigC> saw Bee and Lion, and Tilt's Baby
12:58:15
<CraigC> left the evening before..... I stayed 38 hours straight, then had to bring my g/f back for her nephews f'n bday party
12:58:17
<Cooper> what time did you leave SB
12:58:31
<LindaGp> Grand watch
12:58:33
<Cooper> sorry you did not get it
12:58:41
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> ahh bummer
12:58:49
<LindaGp> At least for 3 min and then OF
12:59:25
<CraigC> until I catch a SB, I am flying solo to YNP from here on out
12:59:40
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> :-D Good Luck!
13:00:04
<Cooper> so you still have no SB's
13:00:07
<ynpvisitor999®> you should invest in a second campervan :)
13:00:09
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Bring your sleeping back, car, stove and some food...don't leave the parking lot!
13:00:24
<CraigC> 𝓔𝓻𝓲𝓬, exactly
13:01:00
<LindaGp> Frozen
13:01:18
<CraigC> walking back and forth in the middle of the night all by myself didn't deter me from my attempt to see it..... but a bday party did
13:01:18
<LindaGp> Up
13:02:00
<CraigC> weirdly, I was more comfortable walking that path at night with my flashlights off
13:02:20
<ynpvisitor999®> Bulger
13:04:20
<Dave from B™> Sure, blame it on the g/f:)
13:04:52
<CraigC> I am
13:05:04
<Cooper> Craig, how many times have you tried to get it? and how many times have you got it?
13:05:16
<CraigC> 3 trips I compromised for other people, and missed it when I would have caught it if I were alone
13:05:34
<ynpvisitor37> 0-0
13:05:35
<CraigC> 5 times
13:05:55
<ynpvisitor999®> so... Craig 0-5 Steamboat
13:06:06
<Cooper> I'm thinking SB does not like you
13:06:09
<CraigC> stayed overnight twince
13:06:14
<CraigC> twice
13:06:36
<ynpvisitor999®> oh, so that's where Dave's curse went to after Dave *finally* caught it
13:06:47
<Dave from B™> Craig, when is your next attempt?
13:06:59
<CraigC> no, I'm thinking I have made bad choices in my attempts, and now need to resolve it
13:07:03
<Dave from B™> Becca thinks it is on her
13:07:43
<CraigC> Dave from B™, maybe the one after the next one, I will go again. I was thinking of going back up Sunday, but I should probably take a breather
13:08:54
<Cooper> Craig, I don't even have to wait 15 minutes for my SB, and you can't get it after 38 Hours, that is not good
13:09:33
<Cooper> hopefuly you get it next time
13:09:43
<Dave from B™> Cooper, it took me 80 and I think Craig is well past me
13:09:58
<ynpvisitor37> Craig, just give the g/f three or four credit cards, leave her at hone, guaranteed SB
13:09:59
<Cooper> SB is very selective isn't it
13:10:19
<CraigC> over the last year, tons of tourists have been walking by when it has erupted, no time invested..... I don't read anything at all into that, why should I
13:11:02
<ynpvisitor37> It is just that Steamboat does not like you
13:11:11
<Dave from B™> Yep....I think that is a normal feeling, Craig. Becca had a former soccer teammate who has very little geyser interest and she caught it within 20 minutes.
13:11:26
<Cooper> Well they are like me, and get very lucky when it comes to Geysers, but most Non-"Gazers" just kept walking when I saw it and did not even care to take a picture, it is very Sad
13:12:00
<CraigC> I have no feeling from that.... the only feeling I have is that if I want to see it, I need to have the freedom to make any choice I wish on my own with no barriers
13:12:38
<Cooper> maybe you could get permission to pitch a tent on the boardwalk and just live there until it erupts
13:13:03
<CraigC> I dont need to pitch a tent, I just need to be at Norris
13:13:50
<Cooper> just keep doing laps
13:13:54
<CraigC> yep
13:14:09
<CraigC> I had 2 miles on my watch app by 5 am, from midnight LOL
13:14:33
<Dave from B™> My only concern is that when are probably closer to the end of this active cycle then the beginning.
13:14:45
<Dave from B™> when = we*
13:14:53
<CraigC> that does worry me
13:15:30
<Cooper> I have been thinking that lately, I bet it does not finish the Year
13:16:17
<CraigC> wed I had 6.72 miles at SB ;)
13:17:25
<CraigC> as soon as I got home yesterdeay I ordered a case of hand warmers
13:18:04
<CraigC> and pulled my winter fleece lined biking pants out of the closet and set out for the next trip
13:18:07
<Cooper> we are at 28, hopefully we break the record ASAP
13:19:05
<LindaGp> Lion
13:19:09
<Cooper> lets zoom back to Lion, I thought it was IE for some reason
13:19:19
<LindaGp> I saw it on my way back to OF
13:19:28
<LindaGp> It was
13:19:36
<Cooper> YAY, I am not completely crazy
13:19:43
<LindaGp> Darn I'm frozen
13:19:53
<Cooper> Bye Everone, Be Back Later
13:20:03
<LindaGp> That would be an ini
13:20:17
<Dave from B™> I still think there is a better than 50% chance we get another "D" this year. That concerns me most of all.
13:20:39
<CraigC> Ledge has changed recently
13:21:13
<CraigC> are you trying to scare me into leaving Sunday to go back up :)
13:21:43
<LindaGp> Lion ini
13:21:56
<CraigC> good cam work
13:22:01
<ynpvisitor999®> what changed of it? The amount of vents or how eruptions look?
13:22:18
<Dave from B™> No, if you're like me, you need to get caught up at home before you can go again
13:22:36
<CraigC> I'd have to go find the notes, but now I cant remember where I read, FB or GT
13:22:58
<LindaGp> Come on OF, do it
13:23:16
<CraigC> I did my laundry, fed my fish, said hi to my daughter, I am good to go
13:25:07
<Dave from B™> I do feel your pain; including trips aborted before even stepping out the door (I did all the packing); I had 6 attempts last year and got skunked
13:25:39
<CraigC> I'm sorry you weren;t able to come down the other day
13:25:43
<Dave from B™> The worst was waking up at 0330 to leave ar 400 and see the seismo report of a 130A eruption
13:25:59
<CraigC> it's mostly enjoyable on the platform regardless
13:26:07
<Dave from B™> I have one. I just need to get fully staffed so I have freedom again.
13:26:36
<Dave from B™> Yep...once SB goes asleep, it will be fun to reminisce about this magical time
13:27:20
<CraigC> those of us sitting there need to do a better job of not getting snarky with tourists and their dumb questions.... I try to be polite, but I got sarcastic with a few
13:27:29
<ynpvisitor999®> OF ie
13:28:01
<Dave from B™> It is very difficult becasue of the length of sitting time. No where else in a basin dd you sit as much waiting
13:28:18
<LindaGp> Frozen
13:28:22
<CraigC> "are you guys expecting it to erupt?" dear lord..... let me try to reply in some way to make you not look stupid for a question like that
13:28:24
<Dave from B™> Maybe gazers should take 1 hour shifts answering questions
13:28:38
<Dave from B™> :D
13:29:07
<Dave from B™> Jeff Foxsworthy would have a heyday with a question like that
13:29:31
<LindaGp> You should tell thwm someone fell I and you are waiting for them to be ejected.
13:30:05
<CraigC> last night in bed before I fell asleep I was thinking of making laminated signs to attach to some of those large spring loaded wood clamps to put on the boardwalk at the platform
13:30:16
<LindaGp> OF ended 13:29
13:30:44
<Henry V> I made a wish and threw a coin in, and I didn't get my wish. So now I want my coin back.
13:31:27
<Dave from B™> hahahahaha Linda
13:33:10
<CraigC> Dave from B™, your idea of shifts is a great idea
13:33:47
<CraigC> another person there brought up that YNP shoudl have a volunteer ranger there like they have at UGB
13:33:48
<LindaGp> I correct OF ended 13:30
13:34:11
<Dave from B™> We could even wear a uniform...bright orange construction worker vest or a referee uniform
13:34:17
<CraigC> LOL
13:34:26
<Dave from B™> Volunteer would be great
13:34:52
<Dave from B™> Were you there when Udo brought a hardhat and gave it to Carol?
13:34:54
<CraigC> YNP is negligent in not having better interpretive signs there
13:35:16
<CraigC> Dave from B™, yeah, he posed for me to take a shot and I posted it on my FB
13:36:00
<CraigC> I also have a shot of the group with her wearing it, but I didnt post, because some of them might not want their faces shown on FB
13:36:00
<Dave from B™> I know Bill has mentioned that they are in the process of doing geyser basin sign updates
13:36:33
<Dave from B™> But Bill has his hands full. Lots of things on his to do list
13:36:39
<CraigC> even a dry erase board with the last 5 eruptions and intervals posted and updated
13:37:14
<CraigC> if people can't figure out some things from that, they don't deserve our time to educate them
13:39:28
<ynpvisitor37> Wider please for Lone Star :)
13:39:43
<Dave from B™> I think NPS is afriad to put anything close to SB.....might get slimed
13:40:11
<LindaGp> Where is lone star?
13:40:12
<CraigC> true
13:40:22
<Dave from B™> Really 37?:)
13:40:22
<CraigC> to the right a little
13:40:31
<ynpvisitor37> :):)
13:41:00
<CraigC> hey Kevin
13:41:39
<Dave from B™> Time to spend some time in my "local" prison. Be back later after some freezer work.
13:42:06
<Kevin L™🌵> Hi Craig
13:48:43
<Henry V> In other news, big volcano eruption in Peru today.

13:57:40
<Henry V> Hey CraigC, Jimbo says hi
13:58:19
<CraigC> hey to Jimbo
13:58:30
<ynpvisitor999®> that volcano you're talking about, is actually quite active as far as recorded history is concerned
13:58:34
<ynpvisitor999®> OT ie
13:58:48
<CraigC> I just read about the volcano, that is significant
13:58:56
<Henry V> Yeah, it is. This is a tag stronger than the usual activity.
13:59:00
<Henry V> *tad
13:59:01
<LindaGp> Frozen OT 😉
13:59:22
<CraigC> as opposed to frozen OJ
13:59:48
<Dave from B™> haha
13:59:53
<Henry V> :thumbsup:
14:00:07
<CraigC> or frozen sky
14:00:42
<LindaGp> 😊
14:01:08
<LindaGp> 8 min
14:03:16
<Henry V> X-ed out
14:03:42
<ynpvisitor999®> b1 done
14:03:47
<LindaGp> Up
14:06:34
<ynpvisitor999®> apparantly Big Cub threw out a small bucket's worth of water, according to the 1235 note
14:19:34
<ynpvisitor13> Must be a problem with amazon's facial recognition software. A city in Florida had the same problem and discontinued the program.
14:20:10
<Dave from B™> Too many doppelgangers in the world
14:28:50
<LindaGp> Lion
14:44:10
<LindaGp> Well at least we got grand, castle and bee before cam really took a turn
14:44:19
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Looks like we are getting doubled up entries for BSB
14:44:43
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> I might extend the combine time to 3 minutes
14:45:06
<ynpvisitor999®> so far the longest eruptions have lasted some 5 minutes. Maybe a 5-minute combine time?
14:45:22
<ynpvisitor999®> I don't know of intervals less than 5 minutes
14:45:37
<LindaGp> 𝓔𝓻𝓲𝓬, why is your name showing as xxxx?
14:45:43
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> perfect...will set to 5 minutes
14:45:59
<𝓔𝓻𝓲> Because you don't have unicode support on your browser :-D
14:46:27
<Eric> I will shift back to un-fancy name so you can see me.
14:47:05
<ynpvisitor999®> YNM seems to be offline. Probably due to maintenance
14:47:30
<LindaGp> Its an ibcdic/ascii problem?
14:47:57
<Dave from B™> Say that real fast 3 times
14:48:14
<LindaGp> ☺
14:49:32
<Eric> min duration of BSB set to 5 minutes now
14:50:04
<Eric> It's a unicode issue...what browser are you using?
14:50:26
<LindaGp> Chromw
14:50:40
<LindaGp> Geez can't even type that. Chrome
14:51:26
<ynpvisitor37> Curious, what is the vakue of a South Bubbler entry?
14:51:48
<Dave from B™> About $.05 per entry
14:52:07
<Dave from B™> I think people want to see its relationship to BH
14:52:13
<ynpvisitor37> Ah! that is what I thought:)
14:52:23
<Eric> What is the value of any entry?
14:52:28
<ynpvisitor999®> what'd be the value of historic entries?
14:52:51
<Eric> It we start to see trends or relationships, they can tell us things about geysers
14:53:15
<Eric> Geysers are ever changing...if you want to learn, you have to watch and record.
14:53:18
<ynpvisitor37> I have seen South bubbler start at 0500 and BH not erupt till late afternoon
14:53:36
<Eric> Yep...sometimes relationships are not obvious.
14:54:04
<Eric> Sometime in the future, the data might be of vital importance to understand....we don't know
14:54:22
<ynpvisitor37> that is very true
14:55:04
<Eric> We know so little about this geyser, it is a starting place for us to learn.
14:55:37
<Eric> What operating system are you using Linda?
14:55:44
<Eric> windows 3.1? :-P
14:56:02
<Dave from B™> Is this the largest eruption South Bubbler has had in its history?
14:56:06
<LindaGp> Well I might not have watched bee so much this morning if Ben hasn't started.
14:56:23
<LindaGp> Ben=bsb
14:56:51
<Eric> I don't know about that Dave...I think it's had periods of activity, but since there was no place to record it, we really don't have any confirmation.
14:57:07
<LindaGp> That was the only warning this morning
14:57:29
<Eric> Yes, and it's strength makes me wonder if it does suck the power from BHI
14:57:39
<LindaGp> I'm on an android phone
14:57:45
<LindaGp> For the chat
14:58:58
<ynpvisitor999®> Landis' 1987 Beehive information (on the Goggle Group) doesn't mention anything of South Bubbler (then known as Valentine Pool, probably because the vent is heart-shaped) reaching any higher than bubbling
14:59:04
<ynpvisitor999®> Google Group*
14:59:10
<Eric> Apparently android doesn't always have a unicode font
14:59:34
<ynpvisitor37> should we not have an entry point for the West Bubblers also, in the past we have used them as sort of an indication of Bee
14:59:49
<LindaGp> Eric, interesting it was only happening on my phone, my tablet was able to handle your name
15:00:43
<Eric> I haven't had anybody bugging me about entering West Bubbler data and I think there are a couple of them on the West side, so we would need a way to differentiate.
15:01:12
<Eric> Many gazers have asked for a South Bubbler entry
15:01:15
<LindaGp> I think they were going this morning before the south bubbler
15:02:13
<LindaGp> Both bubbler were pretry small
15:02:17
<Eric> Also I think part of it is we are seeing interesting behaviors from South Bubbler, while the west one is just doing what it seems to have been doing for years.
15:03:42
<CraigC> OF
15:05:27
<Eric> We are missing OF!
15:05:35
<Eric> How can that be?
15:06:06
<LindaGp> Try to remain calm...lol
15:07:49
<ynpvisitor999®> Chat: "Cam's up". Cam: "How about no?"
15:08:57
<LindaGp> We never dis see riverside
15:09:38
<LindaGp> LCie
15:10:48
<ynpvisitor37> Linda, KittB did
15:11:08
<LindaGp> ynpvisitor37, Ok thats good
15:11:35
<LindaGp> Ah I see it now
15:12:14
<ynpvisitor37> At this temp and humidity I dont think we would
15:12:51
<LindaGp> 👍
15:13:16
<Cooper> YAY, SHE IS HOME AND ALIVE
15:13:39
<Eric> Wow....that is awesome Cooper
15:13:53
<LindaGp> That's great cooper
15:14:24
<LindaGp> Hi to mom 😊
15:16:58
<Cooper> NO MORE HOSPITAL FOOD. :):):)
15:19:03
<LindaGp> 👍
15:20:06
<Dave from B™> Time to start the weekend. Have a great one everybody! Time for a cold beer and brat at the minor league baseball game this evening.
15:20:28
<LindaGp> Bye dave
15:21:33
<Cooper> Bye Dave
15:35:00
<Cooper> Lion
15:35:04
<LindaGp> Lion

<LindaGp> LC ie
15:39:29
<LindaGp> I don't have the cam I'm assuming Gary does
15:40:24
<LindaGp> Although it hasn't moved
15:42:03
<Kat> want me to check?
15:43:17
<ynpvisitor45> Twice control was taken but it didnt move
15:44:01
<LindaG> There we go
15:44:24
<LindaG> Have a good evening
15:44:36
<Kat> OK - not going to check! :)
15:44:51
<LindaG> Kat, good idea 😊
15:45:02
<Kat> :):):)
15:45:09
<LindaG> Bbl or not
15:45:47
<Kat> It's really no problem - Gary and I are good friends!
15:45:58
<Kat> Enjoy Linda!
15:56:31
<ynpvisitor999®> probably going to be a long Great Fountain interval. 5th series an hour into the eruption
16:10:45
<ynpvisitor999®> Daisy
16:36:00
<ynpvisitor999®> OF 1635
16:49:53
<ynpvisitor999®> I have my doubts about your last statement, but okay... :)
16:51:00
<Cooper> Do you think we missed a Lion? no many people there
16:51:15
<Cooper> Well maybe not
16:55:36
<Cooper> Dome ns
16:56:24
<Cooper> would that be an initial???
16:56:44
<Eric> nope
16:57:04
<Eric> It's just been missed a bunch today
16:58:00
<Cooper> Come on Plum, GO NOW, start another active cycle
16:58:01
<ynpvisitor999®> it's been having eruptions all day. Initial was probably overnight, perhaps between 2300-0100 based on the observed closed intervals today
16:58:08
<Cooper> Plime**
16:58:23
<Cooper> BA
16:58:45
<ynpvisitor999®> do you mean Plume?
16:59:06
<Cooper> WOW, Yes, Yes I do, Plyme***
16:59:20
<Cooper> Plume**
16:59:23
<Cooper> There I go
16:59:53
<ynpvisitor999®> I think you didn't realise you brought a Dave keyboard with you when you left the hospital
17:00:23
<Cooper> I guess it found a way into my Suticase
17:00:33
<Cooper> Suitcase**
17:16:17
<Betty> afternoon all
17:16:28
<Cooper> Hey Betty
17:16:39
<Betty> hi Cooper
17:16:54
<Cooper> Aurum
17:16:55
<Cooper> .
17:16:55
<Betty> Aurum
17:16:55
<Cooper> .
17:16:56
<Cooper> .
17:16:57
<Cooper> .
17:16:58
<Betty> .
17:16:58
<Betty> .
17:16:58
<Cooper> .
17:17:02
<Cooper> HAHA
17:17:02
<ynpvisitor999®> evening Betty
17:17:16
<CraigC> dings worked
17:17:31
<ynpvisitor999®> I had the luck I just switched to this tab
17:17:34
<Betty> :-)
17:17:51
<Betty> LC
17:18:04
<Cooper> Done
17:18:07
<ynpvisitor999®> very fine eruption
17:18:18
<Betty> a nice one
17:19:52
<ynpvisitor999®> Betty, have you seen the 1235 Big Cub note?
17:20:18
<Cooper> What does small bucket even mean???
17:20:20
<Betty> interesting
17:20:43
<ynpvisitor999®> I think it means it threw out a small bucket's worth of water
17:20:50
<Betty> we had a good visible splash the other day
17:21:20
<CraigC> I observed Big Cub spurt a small bucket full a couple of weeks ago while waiting for Lion
17:21:33
<ynpvisitor999®> I really hope we see it one day erupting
17:21:40
<ynpvisitor999®> accompanied by Lioness
17:21:50
<Cooper> That would be awsome
17:30:03
<CraigC> did any of you see the bison walking down the paved path next to Castle a few days ago?
17:33:21
<Cooper> Hey Graham
17:33:32
<CraigC> hey Graham
17:33:42
<GO MORNING> hello all........ hi Craig ... where r u?
17:33:55
<CraigC> home :(
17:34:13
<GO MORNING> sorry SB stumped you again
17:34:19
<GO MORNING> hope you had fun tho
17:35:25
<CraigC> mostly fun, was pretty bugged I had to bring my g/f back so she could go to her nephews bdayparty. I let her know from here on out I am flying solo to YNP until I see SB
17:35:27
<ynpvisitor999®> afternoon Graham
17:35:59
<GO MORNING> uhoh...family strife
17:36:10
<GO MORNING> would you have been there in time anyway? it was early
17:36:26
<CraigC> no, just bad decision makin gon my part trying to please two gods at once
17:36:29
<Eric> Craig is never leaving the norris parking lot again!
17:36:29
<GO MORNING> glad to hear your mom is home Cooper
17:36:42
<CraigC> I would have stayed again that night
17:36:51
<Cooper> thanks
17:37:11
<GO MORNING> sounds like you would have had a lot of compant, William, Luke, Mara?
17:37:13
<CraigC> most gazers go gazing alone
17:38:08
<CraigC> this is the 3rd time I didn;t stay and wait it out for the sake of others' comfort
17:38:27
<GO MORNING> its hard to stay overnight
17:38:33
<CraigC> time for my own selfish needs now ;)
17:38:54
<GO MORNING> when is your next trip?
17:38:59
<CraigC> it kind of sucked sitting out there all night all by myself, but I have done suckier stuff
17:39:35
<CraigC> I was going to wait a few weeks, but who knows, maybe I'll get the itch and go Sunday
17:39:57
<GO MORNING> :thumbsup:
17:40:18
<GO MORNING> go while theres lots of daylight still around
17:40:57
<GO MORNING> you can join Betty and I there for night sit in Sept .. and maybe others
17:41:04
<CraigC> yep, and warmer nights. 2 nights ago got cold because of the storm that rolled in earlier that evening, otherwise the nights wouldnt be bad now
17:41:26
<CraigC> as soon as I got home I ordered a case of hand warmers
17:41:49
<Cooper> Craig I am so sorry, I wait for 15 Minutes and gt an SB, and you wait for 38 Hours and dont get it
17:42:07
<Cooper> get**
17:42:34
<CraigC> thanks, Cooper. I really don't spite others good fortunes, I shoudl have seen this one. My own fault I allowed bad situation on this trip.
17:42:46
<GO MORNING> i might get some handwarmers for Sept ... last year it got down to 16 the night I was out there
17:42:55
<GO MORNING> or maybe it was 18
17:43:02
<GO MORNING> doesnt really matter at that temp
17:43:02
<Cooper> Well SB cant eleude your forever. and I feel like your are going to get it next time
17:43:23
<CraigC> unless it stops this active phase
17:43:39
<Cooper> that would SUCK
17:43:56
<CraigC> how many times in teh recorded history has it stayed active this lone
17:43:58
<CraigC> long
17:44:25
<GO MORNING> in the 60s and 80s it lasted longer but it never had this regularity
17:44:54
<CraigC> and will the next interval be 8 days, or 5 or 6?
17:44:55
<GO MORNING> maybeitwill stay active for years and years
17:44:58
<Cooper> When it does end, I feel it will not go again for quite a LOOOONG time
17:45:01
<GO MORNING> that will exhaust us all
17:45:41
<Cooper> Craig, where do you live?
17:45:55
<GO MORNING> Norris
17:46:07
<Cooper> HAHA
17:46:28
<CraigC> the night I stayed, NV was active almost the entire night. I couldnt see the south vent because of the steam and lighting. Then the next day it was mostly blah until about 3, but not as impressive as the day before
17:46:46
<CraigC> Northern Utah. 4 to 5 hour drive
17:47:04
<Cooper> That is not too bad
17:47:19
<CraigC> weird that it died down almost a whole day
17:47:41
<ynpvisitor999®> maybe an extended pressure cooking phase?
17:48:00
<CraigC> which means what
17:48:11
<Cooper> SB seems to have a pattern of a Lull, and then it is 24 to 48 Hours until the eruption, but almost alawys around 34
17:48:35
<GO MORNING> whats the definition of pressure cooker phase?
17:48:42
<ynpvisitor999®> actually that may have been what caused SB to quiet down
17:49:10
<GO MORNING> is there enough data or that Cooper?
17:49:12
<CraigC> people throw out these terms, saying not worth staying because of this or that, then people miss eruptions because it does something different. No one has a real handle on SB
17:49:23
<Cooper> I am wondering when we are going to get a "D" it seems like we might get one soon
17:49:42
<ynpvisitor999®> according to William: "where tall angled minors decreased, steam became more prominent and runoff out of SV increased". I don't think that happened during that quiet day
17:49:46
<GO MORNING> i dont think theres any way to know when a D will start
17:50:00
<GO MORNING> thanks Jarno
17:50:03
<ynpvisitor999®> so perhaps 'just' a lull
17:50:05
<Cooper> Graham, it was Lori's idea, she has 3 now 4 data points, if you want to know more about her idea I would talk to her
17:50:39
<Cooper> and all of those data points are in a row, and point to her theory being correct
17:51:24
<GO MORNING> ok ...... hard to know if there was consistent observation for the whole period
17:51:34
<ynpvisitor18> the lull is subjective though - we don't always have eyes on in 24 hours
17:51:49
<Cooper> that's true
17:51:50
<CraigC> I had eyes on it for 38 hours
17:52:09
<CraigC> I saw active and inactive cycles
17:52:45
<CraigC> and I was stumped, and have been over several visits of long observations
17:53:02
<ynpvisitor18> some lulls have good minors, other "lulls" have virtually none
17:53:12
<CraigC> right
17:54:30
<CraigC> I wondered/speculated if all the strong activity from about 2200 until 0430 the next morning, meant SB needed a long slow period to recharge
17:54:42
<ynpvisitor18> and not all observations make it to GT, no entries doesn't necessarily mean a lull
17:55:36
<CraigC> for every speculation, there are eruptions that go a different way ;)
17:56:39
<CraigC> can anyone after all this time even explain with any credibility why the vents go from angled to vertical?
17:57:11
<ynpvisitor18> so CraigC it recharged about 24 hours from your overnight obs?
17:57:39
<Cooper> No idea, I have the same question about Giant. Hopefully the USGS imaging thing will give us all of that information
17:58:13
<CraigC> ynpvisitor18, it went from about 0430 to about 1500 until an exciting concerted vertical minor, but that even was not as impressive as one the day before
17:59:05
<CraigC> then I think the next was about 1900 or so, and less impressive
17:59:36
<ynpvisitor18> and the eruption the next morning
17:59:42
<CraigC> yep
18:00:16
<CraigC> I've been too pissy to check notes from any that stayed that night
18:00:24
<CraigC> :)
18:00:47
<ynpvisitor18> so that's 26 hours from the overnight strong NV activity
18:01:47
<GO MORNING> i am guessing the angledepends o how full the water colmn is .. but dont know
18:03:22
<CraigC> when I stayed overnight a couple of weeks ago, we had a HUGE concerted minor that really built and sustained at around 0100... my heart stopped, I really thought it was going to go..... then it petered out, and activity went really inactive til around 0430, then a few good minors at 8ish, then erupted at 2200 that night, 3 hours after I left. So maybe the really strong activity without pushing int
18:03:33
<CraigC> into erption makes it need a long recharge cycle
18:06:28
<CraigC> sounds like a Rubik's puzzle for some engineering students to create a model where they solved which factors would cause angle to change in what kind of shaped vent
18:07:29
<Cooper> Hmmm, interesting BHI Note before the eruption this morning
18:08:23
<ynpvisitor18> gives new meaning to :water in Indy:
18:08:44
<CraigC> makes one wonder if South Bubbler is taking energy from BHI
18:10:43
<CraigC> has anyone plotted the intervals for BH over the last few months to see if it has been more sporadic in the last few weeks?
18:10:57
<Cooper> So on the 6C ID# On that fish I suspect that there could be some sort of Parasite in there and that it could be casueing that 6C, I would like another sample sent to CPW. Thanks Korben Cooper
18:11:13
<Cooper> oops, sorry was supposed to be in email, wrong window
18:11:36
<Cooper> sorry'
18:11:52
<CraigC> piqued my curiosity
18:12:02
<CraigC> what kind of fish
18:12:25
<Cooper> Rainbow Trout
18:14:18
<Cooper> I work with some people, as a volunteer, and I catch fish and then report their condition and attempt to determine what to do, it gets me a free double rod fishing license, and helps Colorado Parks and Wildlife keep track of water and fish condition in lakes all over the state
18:14:48
<ynpvisitor999®> Cistern is refilling
18:15:09
<Cooper> 6C means a parasite in the upper mouth, and could be a cause of some higher death ratios in the fish
18:15:42
<CraigC> Cooper, goo dowrk
18:15:46
<CraigC> good work
18:17:29
<Cooper> I am hoping that, that 6C is actually just and FA(False Alarm), because there are some nice fish in that reservoir
18:17:52
<ynpvisitor62> Is a fish hook a parasite?
18:19:17
<ynpvisitor62> Nothing to see and the cam is working fine?
18:19:21
<Cooper> not usually, it can cause a parasite, but is not directly one, if the lab comes back with a slight increase in Aluminum, and/or Magnesium then it was likely caused by a fish hook
18:21:04
<ynpvisitor999®> makes me wonder if the potential increase in parasites comes from people throwing rainbow trout back into the water after having caught it with a hook
18:23:06
<Cooper> It is unlikely, but well that is what we are trying to figure out, but it would not be a hook that causes it, it would be the type of metal
18:23:07
<Betty> OF
18:23:49
<Betty> good column
18:24:00
<Betty> rainbow
18:24:05
<ynpvisitor62> Most of the recover quite well. Have even heard stories of people catching fish with a hook still stuck in them when they brake the line.
18:24:10
<ynpvisitor62> Trout?
18:24:11
<kcmule> hi Betty
18:24:25
<Betty> hi kcmule
18:24:39
<Cooper> 62, what do you mean Trout?
18:24:49
<ynpvisitor62> There it is, I would say Irish
18:25:03
<ynpvisitor62> Betty's Rainbow.
18:25:18
<Betty> OF had a rainbow :-)
18:25:34
<Cooper> ohhh
18:26:05
<Betty> I doubt there was a trout in :-D
18:26:47
<ynpvisitor62> So is that legal path, or are they off?
18:27:04
<ynpvisitor62> Looks like a log to stop them
18:27:15
<Betty> west triplet ie
18:29:06
<Cooper> glad Cistern is refilling, I have been worried about getting a "ZAP" lately
18:29:42
<ynpvisitor62> Daisy time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4IxVeRTCA4
18:29:51
<ynpvisitor62> Everyone sing along
18:30:12
<ynpvisitor999®> a disturbance doesn't necessarily mean Cistern won't refill and Steamboat doesn't start minors
18:30:14
<Cooper> Hahahaha
18:30:42
<Cooper> Jarno, I know I just am glad to see Cistern going again
18:30:59
<ynpvisitor18> ynpvisitor999®, you are right. We could enjoy minors for months. :)
18:31:22
<ynpvisitor62> 57 does not like us
18:31:22
<Cooper> BBL, or for a quick run, enjoy Daisy
18:32:44
<ynpvisitor999®> when does Norris' annual late-summer disturbance usually start?
18:32:51
<ynpvisitor999®> Bulger
18:33:41
<ynpvisitor18> disturbance = anytime
18:34:20
<ynpvisitor999®> Bulger major
18:37:40
<Msmac> Sorry to be so uniformed. What are we looking at?
18:38:35
<GO MORNING> Jarno - it started ealy summer last year and spring this year
18:38:46
<ynpvisitor999®> we're looking downbasin. Castle is the large plume to the left behind the trees, Grand is to the right and currently not eruption (thus you don't see it either)
18:39:03
<ynpvisitor18> March this year, June last year
18:40:07
<ynpvisitor62> Waiting for Daisy to show up, that little steam about 1/4 way in from the left. Back in trees.
18:40:23
<ynpvisitor999®> here's an image: https://chat.geysertimes.org/images/ugbWebcamReferencePanorama.png
18:40:45
<ynpvisitor999®> labeled with a fair number of geysers visible from the cam
18:42:33
<GO MORNING> Demetri was at Ledge Spring
18:42:42
<GO MORNING> I see Will has been around too
18:43:07
<GO MORNING> all those Wite enries must be Will :)
18:43:17
<ynpvisitor62> Will, I thought he was retired
18:43:23
<ynpvisitor999®> Grotto's quiet
18:45:25
<Betty> I call it a day
18:45:31
<Betty> night all
18:45:38
<ynpvisitor999®> night Betty
18:47:31
<ynpvisitor62> Prost
18:47:44
<ynpvisitor999®> oh dear... I just viewed the NPS webcam reference image from a bit closer. In the panorama, Giant is correctly labeled, while in the thumbs below it, Oblong is incorrectly labeled as Giant...
18:48:15
<GO MORNING> yeah i noticed that too
18:48:29
<GO MORNING> not that it relly maters :)
18:49:01
<ynpvisitor999®> were that tall Comet jets or am I seeing things?
18:49:05
<ynpvisitor62> yep. Night mode for Grand to BH is out of focus bad. I guess the are not interested as OF is not involved.
18:51:31
<ynpvisitor999®> so night mode needs its sensitivity upped?
18:52:09
<GO MORNING> temp may drop to 80 tonight, nice
18:52:21
<ynpvisitor62> Couple days ago cam opp did it manually and it was fantastic.
18:52:51
<ynpvisitor999®> I wonder if that was Joe doing that :)
18:52:53
<ynpvisitor62> Sounds like a good night for riots.
18:53:08
<ynpvisitor62> Nope, one of the girls I believe.
18:53:59
<ynpvisitor999®> that's very possible, yes
18:54:15
<ynpvisitor62> It was twilight.
18:54:49
<ynpvisitor999®> as it seems Daisy already went, I'm also off for today. Enjoy Grotto once it goes
18:55:24
<Cooper> back from my run
18:55:28
<ynpvisitor62> It may be late again.
18:55:28
<Cooper> Bye Jarno
18:55:49
<Cooper> 1 Mile= 7 Minutes 32 Seconds
18:56:33
<ynpvisitor62> Take 4 minutes off and you will have something.
18:57:08
<Cooper> That will be my goal, I hope I get under 7:30 here soon
18:57:55
<Cooper> but then again, I am only 13
18:58:06
<Kevin L™🌵> 1 mile=2h34m48s and 3 park benches.
18:58:28
<Cooper> Kevin, How is your Dad??
18:59:35
<Kevin L™🌵> Pretty lousy today. Having a lot of trouble breathing.
19:00:02
<Cooper> sorry to hear that:(
19:01:02
<CraigC> sorry, Kevin
19:01:32
<ynpvisitor62> Maybe the food is too good, call the old place and have them send some over for him.
19:01:40
<GO MORNING> thats not good Kevin. hope he improves tomorrow
19:02:01
<Kevin L™🌵> Nothing unexpected. At 87 he is living on borrowed time.
19:02:53
<Kevin L™🌵> About the only thing he can eat looks like a Gerber meal.
19:03:02
<GO MORNING> they dont bounce back very quickly at that age
19:03:37
<GO MORNING> my mom made shepards pie aspart of her OT today .. it was yummy
19:03:49
<Kevin L™🌵> How is your Mom Cooper?
19:04:03
<Cooper> shes good, she is home they discharged her today
19:04:33
<Msmac> What is going on to the left? Sorry to be so dumb.
19:05:05
<CraigC> Msmac, takes time to orient, no need to feel dumb
19:05:22
<Kevin L™🌵> Very Nice. Take good care of her. She will need it.
19:05:24
<Cooper> Churn looks HOT
19:05:25
<CraigC> when they moved this cam, we all struggled to get our bearings
19:05:54
<GO MORNING> the steam on the left s from Castle
19:06:17
<Kevin L™🌵> Castle Geyser is at the far left in this picture.
19:06:21
<GO MORNING> not erupting, just steaming
19:06:30
<Msmac> Ok. Thanks. Used to be here a lot and knew my way around. Not so much now!!
19:06:44
<CraigC> sprinkler geyser is erupting in the very center, this side of the river
19:06:45
<ynpvisitor62> Think the wind is blowing the top off daisy?
19:07:25
<CraigC> Oblong Geyser is steaming straight behind Sprinkler by the trees
19:08:19
<CraigC> in between sprinkler and oblong, Churn is slightly steaming here and there
19:08:42
<ynpvisitor62> Is that steam from F&M area?
19:08:58
<Msmac> Thank you craigc!!
19:08:58
<Cooper> Hmm, Yes it is
19:09:29
<ynpvisitor62> We need the bathroom cam?
19:09:58
<CraigC> no gazers down basin?
19:10:31
<CraigC> guess I better start packing my trailer
19:10:35
<CraigC> :)
19:10:36
<Kevin L™🌵> They must be at Lone Star
19:10:47
<Cooper> I wonder what is going on Back there
19:10:49
<ynpvisitor37> You cannot see F&M area, it is a little further right
19:11:06
<CraigC> if I go up alone, and take my bike, I could go hit Lone Star
19:11:13
<Cooper> 37, But you can see the steam, at least I think
19:11:21
<ynpvisitor37> NO
19:11:51
<GO MORNING> i dont know how far right of Grand you look for f&m
19:12:16
<GO MORNING> maybe steamis from Grotto Ftn area
19:12:21
<GO MORNING> blowing over
19:12:31
<ynpvisitor37> F&M steam comes up just left of Rside and neither are in this view
19:12:40
<CraigC> here is the Google Earth plot; https://imgur.com/L8zzFNm
19:13:27
<GO MORNING> thanks Craig
19:13:52
<GO MORNING> so half way between Grand and Riverside, thats in view but the steam was too close to Grand
19:15:04
<GO MORNING> could be Grotto Ftn area
19:17:29
<Michael> I've been blaming Link for a lot of steam clouds that aren't Grotto Fountain.
19:20:05
<Msmac> What is steaming on the right?
19:20:09
<ynpvisitor37> The steam at ~1908was just to the right of thr Bigou/Giant area, I don't have any Idea what that is
19:20:35
<ynpvisitor37> bijou *
19:21:27
<Kevin L™🌵> The thing farthest to the right (more toward the foreground) is Spasmodic.
19:21:28
<ynpvisitor37> There it is again
19:21:45
<Kevin L™🌵> Bijou in the background.
19:22:00
<Msmac> Yes. Lots of steaming on the right.
19:22:01
<Cooper> Could it be Spa by any Chance???
19:22:23
<ynpvisitor37> behind Grand and slightly right
19:23:18
<Cooper> it could be Spa
19:24:36
<Cooper> Any ideas on it being Spa
19:25:02
<Kevin L™🌵> Spa can pop up and surprise you.
19:25:18
<Msmac> Spa. Maybe.
19:25:28
<Kevin L™🌵> Smells great if an elf falls into it though.
19:25:54
<ynpvisitor18> lol
19:25:54
<Kevin L™🌵> elk. Geez.
19:26:12
<ynpvisitor18> :)
19:26:23
<Kevin L™🌵> Speaking of that, I did see my first Christmas ad this week.
19:27:55
<ynpvisitor62> Christmas in July TV shows were advertised. That is just wrong.
19:28:16
<ynpvisitor37> Christmas in Yellowstone is just a little over a month away
19:28:58
<Kevin L™🌵> I miss Christmas in Yellowstone. The new group just is not the same.
19:29:27
<ynpvisitor37> Bulger
19:29:36
<ynpvisitor37> AND OT
19:29:57
<CraigC> and sprinkler, the trifecta
19:31:17
<ynpvisitor62> Speaking of Christmas. Will the World Series be over by then?
19:31:22
<ynpvisitor37> I have been there every year, It has really gone downhill the past few
19:37:02
<ynpvisitor62> I think Dave mowed over Daisy.
19:37:32
<ynpvisitor62> Enjoy.
19:42:41
<Msmac> What is the one in the center right now?
19:42:58
<ynpvisitor37> Grand
19:42:58
<CraigC> :grand:
19:43:43
<Msmac> Oh wow!
19:43:52
<Msmac> That's grand?
19:44:55
<ynpvisitor37> starCraig, can you plot Link and spa on your map? I cannot get GE to do that for me
19:45:44
<CraigC> ynpvisitor37, I didn't save those in GE, I can try to start a fresh one for those 2
19:45:55
<ynpvisitor37> I dont know where the star came from, but if it fits
19:46:11
<CraigC> LOL
19:52:29
<Michael> Drumroll....
19:52:31
<Msmac> So which one is it?
19:53:45
<Joe> 1b
19:53:47
<Michael> ...(drumroll fades)...no 2nd burst for us tonight. Time for Old Faithful, though.
19:58:12
<CraigC> Joe, here is a plot; https://imgur.com/PZdlAWZ
19:58:40
<CraigC> red is link and spa, green is grand, blue is riverside
19:59:00
<Michael> If someone here has the camera, can they point at OF before it erupts?
19:59:23
<CraigC> but I screwed up and placed the cam point too far right
19:59:57
<CraigC> I was doing it at an angle and when I rotated the view for it to be straight, I saw it is wrong
20:00:18
<Cooper> OF ie on static
20:00:38
<CraigC> Michael, Gary doesnt usually come in the chat during his shift
20:00:51
<Joe> That steam at 1908 could have been link or spa, thanksCraig
20:01:30
<Michael> Ah, I didn't know the cam-op schedule. Seemed worth a try.
20:02:15
<CraigC> many Friday nights I didn't stick around here because are spoiled with other times when it is more interactive with the camop
20:03:08
<Cooper> Arty ns
20:03:15
<CraigC> yep
20:03:46
<CraigC> maybe William caught it
20:05:26
<Joe> Craig thanks for plotting that, I fail miserably at GE
20:09:59
<CraigC> YW
20:11:20
<Msmac> What geyser is going off now beyond the tree line?
20:11:45
<CraigC> Artemisia
20:11:51
<Cooper> Artemesia is the one way back there
20:11:58
<Cooper> Artemisia***
20:12:34
<CraigC> OT is steamy
20:13:14
<Joe> ArtMsmac there is a panorama reference image link und
20:13:30
<Joe> er help and links

<Joe> panorama
20:13:58
<CraigC> this was my view 4 days ago; https://imgur.com/3v1CRT1
20:15:00
<Cooper> you have pictures of good SB minors?
20:15:04
<CraigC> then this for the following 38 hours; https://imgur.com/yZu8buj
20:15:34
<CraigC> Cooper, no, every time there was some exciting minors I jumped up and left my camera on the ground
20:15:35
<Msmac> And the one between Grand and Artemisia is....?
20:15:51
<CraigC> Msmac, grotto area
20:16:00
<Cooper> well, that picture works
20:17:22
<CraigC> bulger
20:18:30
<Cooper> Is hope next summer when I go I get some SB minors, the last 3 times I have gone I have the seen Steamphase, then another Steamphase, and then walked up to an SB where the first Minor turned out to be a major
20:20:50
<CraigC> daisy in window now
20:22:05
<Joe> I think Gary fell asleep
20:22:14
<CraigC> ;)
20:22:38
<CraigC> I'm struggling to stay awake
20:22:57
<CraigC> glad I only have early morning
20:23:04
<Joe> I just committed a capital sin
20:23:58
<CraigC> you took bribes from a lobbyist?
20:24:18
<CraigC> or the wheel?
20:24:39
<Joe> yes the wheel
20:24:46
<CraigC> hahahahaha
