07:27:38
<Kat> There;s a critter on the way to carcas, brief movement
07:28:52
<Kat> wish fog would lift some
07:36:28
<ynpvisitor5> Coyote?
07:36:49
<Kat> Looks like movement at carcass
07:37:07
<ynpvisitor5> There is an animal there
07:37:08
<Art> Agree, something is on it
07:38:00
<Kat> I think it is coyote - saw it running from Hill area
07:40:21
<Art> Looks like it's tugging hard
07:40:25
<Kat> That's some frozen breakfast
07:40:33
<Art> Can we zoom in on carcass?
07:41:42
<LindaG> Maybe badger
07:41:50
<LindaG> Nope
07:42:19
<Kat> No - coyote pretty sure
07:42:28
<LindaG> Hes going to be one fat coyote
07:42:42
<Kat> :)
07:42:46
<Dave from B™> -30F. That has to be like trying to eat a rock
07:43:44
<Kat> Looks like there may have been other activity around the carcass
07:44:03
<Ryan (desk)> Not if you lick it hard enough :D
07:44:57
<Dave from B™> Ryan, it isn't a popsicle!:D
07:45:29
<Ryan (desk)> It'll melt anyways lol
07:49:49
<Rice> So what animal is the Carcass? Not been paying a lot of attention to the chat, so probably missed it!
07:50:00
<Kat> Bison
07:50:14
<Rice> How long has it been there?
07:50:43
<Kat> I'm not sure - I think Katie found it yesterday afternoon.
07:51:16
<Kat> The videos JOe posted are from yesterday
07:52:37
<Joe1> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8_8fAnUUcQ&t=10s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rp_3sHT3h_o&t=9s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDlMRJHPVec&t=4s
07:52:45
<LindaG> I think she saw coyote running over to it
07:53:05
<Joe1> the three videos from yesterday
07:53:15
<Kat> Thats what I thought Linda
07:56:50
<Art> Thanks for the close ups of the carcass & coyote. Back to work
07:58:18
<Kat> yw Art
07:59:39
<Kat> Looks like Riverside
07:59:54
<Kat> or not
08:01:22
<Kat> taking a break - face washing
08:04:06
<Dave from B™> Who says dogs don't care about being clean
08:05:01
<LindaG> Gotta look handsome for the girls
08:06:59
<Dave from B™> I'm a little confused, however. Is this a loner coyote without a pack or is he hiding this from his pack?
08:07:14
<Kat> heading out the way he came in
08:07:19
<Dave from B™> I really never see coyotes in packs in ynp.
08:08:17
<LindaG> Nice light
08:09:40
<ynpvisitor58> Lion?
08:10:10
<Joe> eLion ie
08:10:11
<ChrisO> Brrrrrr
08:11:10
<Dave from B™> Lori, is that a shivering emoji?
08:11:25
<Lori S 🥶> Yes!
08:11:41
<Lori S 🥶> Good chilly morning to all
08:11:45
<Ryan (desk)> Lion was 0807ie
08:11:49
<Lori S 🥶> _30 in West as well.
08:11:54
<Lori S 🥶> -30
08:12:17
<Lori S 🥶> Walk to work was quite invigorating
08:12:18
<Kat> Thanks Ryan
08:12:39
<Dave from B™> I love the squeak of packed snow at these temps
08:12:49
<Lori S 🥶> Dave from B™, :thumbsup:
08:12:53
<Joe> Kat you can change Lion to 0807 ie if you wish.
08:13:39
<Dave from B™> Lori S, not many people know what we are talking about:)
08:13:54
<LindaG> Lori S 🥶, hello chilly lori hello
08:14:05
<Lori S 🥶> Dave from B™, Might go try the toss the coffe in the air and watch it freeze trick
08:14:19
<Lori S 🥶> Morning Linda
08:14:26
<Kat> I did that - thanks Joe
08:14:34
<Lori S 🥶> But alos VERY pretty out in these temps
08:15:40
<Rice> 75 degrees warmer in Binghamton, NY than Yellowstone today
08:16:12
<Lori S 🥶> Katie picked a good time to go to Cancun
08:16:13
<Ryan (desk)> 80 warmer here
08:16:40
<Lori S 🥶> You all are making me do math with a frozen brain. LOL
08:17:17
<LindaG> Rice, another great reason to promote Binghamton 😉
08:17:53
<Kat> 91 warmer here
08:18:26
<LindaG> 77 here
08:19:04
<LindaG> Warmer that is, wish it was 77
08:19:35
<Kat> :thumbsup:
08:21:15
<JarnoO> who closed the curtains?
08:21:24
<Technetium Talk> It is seriously cold in the UGB right now.
08:21:54
<JarnoO> it amuses me that the current temperature is N/A :)
08:22:28
<JarnoO> oh, -30°F at the moment
08:22:47
<JarnoO> yeah, that is darn cold
08:24:01
<Technetium Talk> I wonder what the boiling water --> snow point is.
08:24:35
<Lori S 🥶> Technetium Talk, After my coffee brews, I will give it a toss.
08:25:00
<Technetium Talk> Stay clear of the down flow.
08:26:11
<Technetium Talk> First article says -22 F is cold enough.
08:26:22
<Technetium Talk> So an eruption should make snow.
08:26:48
<Ryan (desk)> BH woulds be cool
08:27:13
<Technetium Talk> Has to be very low humidity, this might not be low enough, at -22.
08:27:28
<Technetium Talk> But same article says -30 F will work.
08:27:43
<Technetium Talk> https://www.livescience.com/32951-how-can-boiling-water-turn-snow.html
08:28:47
<Lori S 🥶> Technetium Talk, Does elevation come in to play at all like with the boiling point?
08:29:35
<Technetium Talk> Might, because the temperature difference between the boiling water temp and the cold air won't be as much.
08:32:15
<Kat> Ravens having breakfast
08:32:45
<Lori S 🥶> Oh, how did the bisoncicle do overnight?
08:32:51
<JarnoO> wolves didn't find the carcass yet?
08:33:24
<Kat> No wolves - coyote was on the carcass this morning for awhile
08:34:21
<Lori S 🥶> Same coyote you think?
08:35:01
<Ryan (desk)> Sad day here.
08:35:24
<Ryan (desk)> Gotta go home and bury a fur baby. 16 year old golden retriever didnt wake up this morning
08:35:38
<Lori S 🥶> Ryan (desk), Oh no.
08:35:44
<Kat> Oh Ryan I'm so sorry!
08:35:55
<Ryan (desk)> Best possible way for it to happen.
08:36:05
<Lori S 🥶> It's the hardest thing, Ryan (desk), I'm sorry.
08:36:28
<Dave from B™> Sorry, Ryan
08:36:41
<LindaG> So sorry Ryan
08:36:58
<Lori S 🥶> 16 years is a good life.
08:38:54
<Ryan (desk)> Extremely good.
08:39:01
<JarnoO> Light steam from Dilapidated. No eruption, though
08:39:02
<Kat> Cam says it's too cold!
08:39:31
<Lori S 🥶> Kat, but it warmed up a degree ;)
08:40:48
<Kat> Wow - what was I thinking! LOL
08:40:50
<Ryan (desk)> We were starting to worry a bit, actually. She was having some trouble walking. Started having the whole debate of when were we gonna hev to take her to a vet.
08:42:04
<LindaG> Ryan (desk), taking them to vet is a horrible experience, better it happened this way
08:43:00
<Ryan (desk)> Just not waking up was the best possible outcome. She was still exceptionally spry and healthy even yesterday.
08:43:40
<Lori S 🥶> Ryan (desk), she helped you make the decision. Got to pass in a warm house instead of a vet's office.
08:44:12
<Lori S 🥶> or at home anyway
08:44:24
<Ryan (desk)> Warm home for sure.
08:44:54
<Dave from B™> I never thought I would enjoy having dogs as much as I have. For the past 5 years, the greeting you get when you get home ALWAYS puts on smile on my face.
08:46:44
<Lori S 🥶> Dave from B™, I get frustrated when Wylie tries to attack the Chewy box before I've even set it down but wouldn't trade that for anything.
08:48:59
<Ryan (desk)> F**k. New info. She fell down the stairs.
08:49:10
<Dave from B™> Oh, no
08:49:16
<Ryan (desk)> My brother and his girlfriend held her while she passed.
08:49:26
<Dave from B™> I'm so sorry
08:49:48
<Kat> So Sorry Ryan
08:50:17
<Lori S 🥶> Oh geez.
08:50:50
<Lori S 🥶> That's rough. I'm soo sorry.
08:51:30
<Ryan (desk)> Yeah I am heading out of work now. Gotta go be there for people. Think of my brother. We had the dog for most of his concious life.
08:51:53
<LindaG> Ryan (desk), it's good someone was there to comfort her
08:52:28
<Kat> Take care Ryan (desk),
08:55:26
<Lori S 🥶> Take care of your family but take care of you too Ryan (desk).
09:02:32
<Lori S 🥶> This should be pretty
09:02:34
<Kat> OF
09:04:10
<Technetium Talk> Looking for snow >(
09:04:24
<Dave from B™> wow...where is the shuttle going today?
09:04:56
<Lori S 🥶> shuttle?
09:05:04
<Technetium Talk> Looks like a launch
09:06:58
<Lori S 🥶> Technetium Talk, Oh, now I get it. Little bit slow this morning.
09:07:02
<ynpvisitor31> It's a long
09:08:36
<Kat> Looks like Grand?
09:09:28
<Technetium Talk> Cloud is big enough.
09:10:00
<Technetium Talk> Any carcass action?
09:10:48
<Kat> Earlier - coyote
09:12:48
<Kat> Hi Kevin
09:13:21
<Kevin L™️ > Morning
09:13:23
<LindaG> Morning Kevin
09:17:03
<Cooper> I am so glad we got a snowday today, might give a chance to get over my stomach bug.
09:17:59
<LindaG> Cooper, hi hope you do
09:18:11
<LindaG> A peep
09:21:00
<Kat> Lion
09:21:02
<Joe> Lion
09:23:05
<Lori S 🥶> Hi Cooper, Hi Kevin L™️ 🥶
09:23:28
<Kevin L™️ > Hi
09:24:42
<Kevin L™️ > Lion sure fogged the hill.
09:25:14
<Kat> Thats ugly!
09:26:10
<Kat> A little better
09:26:12
<LindaG> Yuck
09:33:41
<Kat> Crazy!
09:34:28
<Lori S 🥶> Good time for the wolves to visit the carcass
09:35:41
<Kat> Thats what I was thinking Lori S 🥶,
09:38:20
<Kat> There's a lot of steam over Giantess area
09:38:46
<Lori S 🥶> Kat, how can you tell? LOL
09:39:12
<Kat> It's intuitive LOL
09:39:35
<Lori S 🥶> I can see what you mean when I look at static
09:40:40
<Kat> You can see it too when you look at top right of cam view
09:41:09
<Lori S 🥶> oh, the white "cloud"?
09:41:14
<LindaG> I guess it's the largest open water area up there
09:42:02
<Lori S 🥶> or it's ie. whichever.
09:42:05
<LindaG> Dome maybe
09:42:10
<Lori S 🥶> :p
09:42:43
<Kat> too far left on static
09:43:01
<Dave from B™> Giantess steams HEAVILY in extreme cold.
09:43:17
<Lori S 🥶> We need the Micah cam
09:43:25
<Kat> :)
09:43:32
<Lori S 🥶> as in Micah in the basin
09:43:46
<Kat> exactly
09:44:30
<Lori S 🥶> Hey, it warmed up to -19
09:44:49
<Dave from B™> wow...a double digit increase
09:44:57
<LindaG> We're having a heat wave
09:45:05
<Dave from B™> It will be above zero by 1130
09:45:32
<LindaG> Coyote will be happy about that
09:48:12
<Technetium Talk> Meat is still fresh
09:49:27
<Dave from B™> fresh frozen
09:49:56
<Lori S 🥶> It's a bluebird day out here in West. Of course, we have no geysers out here to steam up the place.
09:50:43
<Lori S 🥶> oooo. Look at Washburn
09:51:34
<LindaG> Nice
09:52:44
<Technetium Talk> Easy to see the hydrothermal area on South Washburn cam
09:55:10
<ynpvisitor106> carcass is still there?
09:56:14
<Dave from B™> Yes
09:56:21
<ynpvisitor106> no wolves on it yet?
09:57:21
<ynpvisitor106> fog clears
09:57:46
<Dave from B™> Not that we know of. Coyote has been seen once this morning. Do things really smell at -19F?
09:58:15
<ynpvisitor106> idk. thanks
09:59:48
<Dave from B™> Aurum?
09:59:51
<Lori S 🥶> There's some blue sky
10:00:01
<Kat> There's a nice blue sky out there
10:00:37
<ynpvisitor6> Any report on where the wolves were seen in the last day or 2? They do have a small territory, only about the west half of the park. I bet there are more are a dew food carts for them to chose from in the small space they use.
10:00:44
<Kevin L> I think it is ready for me to try my shift.
10:01:33
<Kat> Have fun Kevin - coyote was on carcass early this morning - hope fog clears
10:01:46
<ynpvisitor106> fasten your seatbelt, Kevin is driving
10:02:13
<Kevin L> Where is the carcass?
10:02:29
<ynpvisitor106> in the meadows
10:02:29
<Dave from B™> 6, yesterday it was supposedly reported that the Wapitis were feeding on a carcass in Black Sand
10:03:01
<LindaG> Over the Second tree fro end in parking g lot

10:04:12
<LindaG> Yup
10:05:03
<Kat> That looks odd
10:05:21
<Dave from B™> Remains of coyote fire or a bush
10:05:34
<Dave from B™> It was there yesterdsay
10:05:55
<Dave from B™> up and to right of uso
10:06:22

<Kevin L™️ > I already miss my big screen
10:06:53
<Lori S 🥶> :p
10:07:18
<LindaG> Lori S 🥶, how'd the coffee test work?
10:12:54
<ynpvisitor106> how would an eruption of Giantess look like in this conditions? look at all those steam already without an eruption
10:14:05
<ynpvisitor6> Something big in back. Call it fam for fun
10:14:29
<Lori S 🥶> LindaG, It didn't. Don't think the coffee was hot enough. Just went splat on the snow.
10:14:33
<Kevin L™️ > It has a huge cloud in the summer. It would be awesome.
10:14:54
<LindaG> Lori S 🥶, 🙁
10:15:42

10:16:35
<Lori S 🥶> Dave from B™, LOL
10:16:58
<Lori S 🥶> Hey, it's on private property. I can toss my coffee if I want to. :)
10:17:00
<Dave from B™> West doesn't want to attract any more ravens
10:17:02
<LindaG> Lotta coyote tracks
10:17:29
<Lori S 🥶> Dave from B™, the little fox that visits here might be more awake later
10:17:55
<Dave from B™> haha Lori
10:18:33
<ynpvisitor6> It will just mark to cover the funny smelling and looking yellow spot.
10:18:39
<Kevin L™️ > If you want a bobcat I know where one is.
10:18:59
<Lori S 🥶> Kevin L™️ 🥶, :(
10:19:03
<ynpvisitor6> Ha, if you knew where it was, you would be wearing it.
10:19:28
<Kevin L™️ > Very true #6
10:19:56
<ynpvisitor6> Need more chickens in your trap
10:20:57
<Kevin L™️ > We do have a skunk scent but I don’t think the neighbors would appreciate it.
10:21:46
<Eric> Morning
10:22:07
<Kevin L™️ > Hi

<Eric> Any wildlife action on it?
10:23:06
<Eric> Still no wolves...interesting
10:23:34
<Kevin L™️ > My daughter gave me a fun thing. A Yellowstone quarter minted in silver.
10:23:42
<Dave from B™> It has been very foggy all morning
10:23:51
<Eric> Nice Kevin
10:24:35
<Kevin L™️ > It is about a quarter inch thick and 3 inches in diameter.
10:24:53
<LindaG> Sounds nice
10:25:33
<Lori S 🥶> Morning Eric
10:26:15
<ynpvisitor6> Is the winter version plane frosted silver, so it looks like a foggy morning?
10:27:01
<Technetium Talk> Lion
10:29:19
<Kevin L™️ > Glad we caught Lion before OF window.
10:33:15
<Eric> probably missed bh in the fog this morning
10:33:46
<Kevin L™️ > Wow
10:33:56
<Eric> OF
10:34:23
<LindaG> Really delayed
10:35:06
<ynpvisitor47> that's a pretty one
10:35:13
<LindaG> Look at static
10:35:15
<Eric> Static is pretty
10:35:21
<Eric> :-D
10:37:57
<Eric> https://geysercam.xyz/ugb-ynp/02042020/445.jpg
10:38:26
<LindaG> 😀
10:44:00
<Lori S 🥶> Tv and internet issues in a cabin. You'd think it's the end of the world.
10:44:21
<ynpvisitor6> It is.
10:44:49
<Lori S 🥶> It's not like it's keeping them from getting the Iowa caucus results. :p
10:45:45
<ynpvisitor6> If you do not think so, just start the conversation about no more wifi in the park.
10:46:08
<Lori S 🥶> ynpvisitor6, I know better :)
10:47:07
<ynpvisitor6> Iowa is just a practice run for Nevada. They need to find a reliable way to rig it, that is why they hired a bunch of hillary loosers to get the app from.
10:47:16
<Kevin L™️ > One time I was staying in a room and highway construction cut the fiber optic cable. TV and internet down in the whole city for over 2 days.
10:48:00
<ynpvisitor6> You cut your own cable?
10:49:12
<Kevin L™️ > I did once during my wife’s soap opera. I caught hell from her while I was still at the site.
10:49:41
<Lori S 🥶> Kevin L™️ 🥶, lol
10:50:52
<Kevin L™️ > You don’t want to cut a fiber optic cable. Lots of lawyers.
10:52:53
<Kevin L™️ > Aurum?
10:53:14
<Eric> lion?
10:53:16
<Eric> or bee?
10:53:21
<Eric> lion definitely
10:53:29
<ynpvisitor6> One talented person and a microscope can fix it, no need for liars.
10:53:42
<Dave from B™> 2 eruptions
10:53:49
<Eric> bh too?
10:54:17
<LindaG> May aurum and so nothing tomright
10:54:21
<Dave from B™> What a foggy mess
10:54:37
<Eric> that doesn't help :-P
10:54:46
<LindaG> Yikes maybe aurum and something to right
10:54:55
<Kevin L™️ > I am guessing Aurum with Pump.
10:55:43
<ynpvisitor6> Reruns are killing me, enjoy the steam.
10:55:55
<Eric> 1052 lion start
10:56:45
<Eric> 1053 aurum
10:57:13
<Dave from B™> Do you need? with those, Eric?
10:57:33
<Eric> Here is the video for review: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4325w13fudk8h4d/ugbWebcamTime_02042020_105412.mp4?dl=0
10:57:56
<Kevin L™️ > Didn’t we have a lion just before OF
10:58:13
<Eric> Don't think so
10:58:20
<Eric> It's not on GT
10:58:55
<Kevin L™️ > I did mention that it was nice to get lion before of.
10:58:58
<Eric> hmmm, just read logs, guess people mentioned it, but not on GT
10:59:33
<Eric> I am pretty sure that was Lion at 1052
10:59:38
<Eric> You can watch the video
10:59:49
<Dave from B™> earlier could have been a minor
11:01:45
<Kevin L™️ > I was a Bit busy so I don’t know for sure but it looked big. Went all the way up so the dome cover blocked it.
11:05:42
<Eric> I will add my observations with ? so we at least capture some of the info on GT
11:06:20
<JarnoO> did Yellowstone forget the word 'visibility'? :)
11:17:03
<JarnoO> for the 1052 Lion - the plume looked very much like a typical Lion plume. It looked too long for a roar to me, so 1052 is likely a Lion minor. As for the 1053 Aurum (actually 1052 as well) - considering the wind drift for the 1052 Lion, this was Aurum. That plume also seems to be clearing a bit after a minute, which would fit for a ~1m Aurum.
11:17:59
<Kevin L™️ > Sounds good to me.
11:20:25
<Lori S 🥶> Could we take a peek at the carcass now that we have some clearing?
11:21:58
<JarnoO> duration of the 1052 Lion is around 27 seconds - from :23 (plume appeared) to :50 (this is the point where there's no new steam appearing from Lion)
11:22:30
<Lori S 🥶> Thanks!
11:23:05
<Kevin L™️ > Easier to find without fog
11:23:15
<Lori S 🥶> Kevin L™️ 🥶, indeed
11:24:40
<Kevin L™️ > The ravens probably hurt their beaks on that
11:25:03
<Dave from B™> Coyote is waiting until carcass softens in the heat
11:37:37
<Kevin L™️ > Depression
11:41:50
<Technetium Talk> Sprinkler looks like Grand at these temps
11:42:54
<ynpvisitor71> no sign of wolves
11:43:02
<Lori S 😎> Looks dead (pun intended)
11:43:02
<ynpvisitor71> not enough tracks around it
11:43:41
<Eric> Looks dead
11:43:54
<Eric> haha...woops, didn't even see Lori's comment :-P
11:44:56
<Lori S 😎> Eric, so we agree then :D
11:51:59
<Lori S 😎> Time for lunch
11:53:31
<Kevin L™️ > It has one customer
11:53:46
<Kevin L™️ > Now two
11:54:11
<Dave from B™> Coyote should be coming for lunch soon
11:54:54
<Kevin L™️ > Buffet is open
11:57:45
<JarnoO> hate to break it, but it seems OF ie on static
11:59:12
<JarnoO> near end now
12:00:21
<Kevin L™️ > Went just before window
12:00:45
<JarnoO> back to the carcass?
12:00:56
<LindaG> Kevin L™️ 🥶, that's our story and were sticking to it 😉
12:04:00
<ynpvisitor49> Kevin, just say it is hard to drive when you are driving.
12:04:23
<Kevin L™️ > I was slipping on the snow
12:04:59
<LindaG> Seems less snow on it, cant be melting can it?
12:04:59
<ynpvisitor49> You sure that is a bison and not a off path walker with a fur coat?
12:05:33
<Kevin L™️ > Looks like a buffet to me.
12:05:54
<LindaG> Yesterday it looked like it had a bison head
12:06:03
<ynpvisitor49> Could be the magistrate gave up on banning them, and issued a shoot on sight order?
12:06:48
<LindaG> Micah needs to do reconnaissance
12:07:24
<Kevin L™️ > Maybe it is a california tourist who didn’t count on the cold.
12:07:40
<ynpvisitor49> Good thing it is not in Oregon, the would use dynamite to remove the carcass.
12:07:57
<Kevin L™️ > :)
12:08:01
<ynpvisitor49> Insert expoding whale video here...
12:08:14
<Kevin L™️ > That was really funny.
12:08:51
<Kevin L™️ > Highway engineer mentality.
12:09:05
<ynpvisitor49> The best part was not the big bang. It was the plop plop of all the blubber hitting people and cars.
12:09:16
<Kevin L™️ > Yep
12:09:42
<Kevin L™️ > Really gross sounding
12:10:05
<ynpvisitor49> I wounder if anyone made t-shirts. I went to the Oregon coast and all I got was blubber raining down on me.
12:10:32
<LindaG> I survived the blubber 😃
12:10:47
<ynpvisitor49> I understand if they had smell-o-vision back then they would have had to bleep it out.
12:11:23
<Kevin L™️ > I would like to see the accident report on that car that got hit by that big piece
12:12:33
<ynpvisitor49> The company should dig through their files and make a commercial.
12:12:47
<JarnoO> "Cause of accident: Exploding whale"
12:13:36
<ynpvisitor49> I would not want to be a ravin. What could be worse then eating a still frozen tv dinner?
12:14:20
<Kevin L™️ > My favorite accident report was the lady who wrote that a train swerved and hit her car.
12:14:44
<LindaG> Haha ai ed right at her?
12:14:55
<LindaG> *aimed
12:15:48
<Kevin L™️ > The engines passed her but the first car got her and sent her spinning.
12:16:02
<LindaG> Hey 5 degrees
12:17:02
<Kevin L™️ > Heat wave
12:17:18
<Eric> Bison popsicle out there now
12:18:01
<ynpvisitor100> Meatcicles
12:19:37
<Betty> hi

<Kevin L™️ > Hi
12:20:29
<JarnoO> evening Betty
12:20:56
<LindaG> Betty, hi
12:21:04
<Betty> I write 2 words but only one shows up. where´s the mistake?
12:21:04
<LindaG> JarnoO, hi
12:21:34
<Betty> hi Kevin and Linda, evening Jarno
12:21:37
<Kevin L™️ > Loose nut behind the keyboard
12:21:57
<LindaG> Beautiful scene indeed
12:22:38
<Betty> I fear you are right, Kevin :lol:
12:23:30
<Betty> a beautiful day
12:24:24
<Kevin L™️ > If you are a popsicle
12:25:38
<Betty> you had a Depression?
12:25:44
<Dave from B™> Do we have any coyote experts in the room?
12:25:57
<Eric> Hi Betty
12:25:58
<Betty> hi Dave from B™
12:26:06
<Betty> hi Eric
12:26:37
<Dave from B™> Hi
12:26:39
<Dave from B™> Betty
12:27:06
<Dave from B™> See how I "returned" your comment?:)
12:27:20
<Dave from B™> Or, entered, is probably a better word
12:27:44
<Betty> nice, Dave :-)
12:31:05
<Kevin L™️ > Surprised there are no customers at the bison buffet
12:31:30
<Dave from B™> Day 2 has been quiet......although most od Day 1 activity was in the afternoon.
12:31:52
<LindaG> Just thinking this carcass is boring
12:32:56
<Dave from B™> We will have excitement on the carcass this afternoon.....guaranteed just like my geyser prediictions
12:33:22
<Betty> hahahaha
12:33:33
<LindaG> 😃
12:34:02
<Dave from B™> Are you ladies laughing "at me" or "with me"?
12:34:22
<Kevin L™️ > We could get a pool going on when the coyote will show up.
12:34:23
<Kat> No one is telling....hehehe
12:34:29
<LindaG> With you, of course 😏
12:34:41
<Betty> SURE
12:34:45
<Kat> With!
12:35:04
<Betty> Yes, WITH
12:35:13
<Betty> :-D
12:36:02
<Dave from B™> Kevin,
12:36:35
<Dave from B™> I'll take 1309
12:37:03
<LindaG> I say coyote at 14:00 plus or minus 15 min
12:37:09
<JarnoO> Daisy
12:38:37
<Eric> Dave is always late, so I will take before 1309 :-P
12:38:57
<Kevin L™️ > 1430 plus minus 15m
12:39:18
<Dave from B™> hahaha...usually my windows DELAY eruptions...I think you are on the wrong side:)
12:45:28
<Dave from B™> That's a strange looking carcass
12:53:24
<Kevin L™️ > Castle looking perky
12:56:30
<Betty> bulger ie
13:02:49
<Betty> there was a raven on bisicle
13:04:16
<Dave from B™> Where is Wilie
13:05:52
<Kevin L™️ > Next to Waldo?
13:05:59
<Betty> bsb
13:06:17
<Betty> or indy
13:07:03
<Betty> can we have a look at BH?
13:07:24
<Betty> thx
13:07:27
<Betty> bsb
13:15:07
<LindaG> Coyote probably not coming back cause his teeth hurt
13:15:29
<Dave from B™> He's at the dentist?
13:15:35
<Kevin L™️ > If he has any left.
13:16:24
<LindaG> Picking up so e sensodyne
13:16:38
<LindaG> *some
13:17:26
<LindaG> Ravens
13:17:50
<Kevin L™️ > Needs a BIG crockpot.
13:19:18
<KevinS> Is that grotto?
13:19:47
<Kevin L™️ > It looked like it
13:22:25
<Kevin L™️ > Big crowd at OF
13:26:31
<Kevin L™️ > Awesome
13:27:02
<Betty> nice
13:30:08
<Dave from B™> Time to go sweat. Enjoy the canid show.
13:30:20
<JarnoO> cya Dave

13:31:53
<Betty> have fun, Dave
13:32:07
<Betty> Artemisia ie
13:32:55
<Betty> OF sign is busy
13:50:35
<Betty> Daisy
13:50:44
<Betty> no
13:53:28
<ynpvisitor26> is it just me or is Bee a lot less predicable than it used to be?
13:53:54
<Kevin L™️ > It is right now
13:53:54
<Betty> Bee is predictable?
13:54:28
<JarnoO> Castle
13:54:47
<Betty> and Turban I think
13:54:50
<JarnoO> well... that helps
13:55:13
<Kevin L™️ > Going to be hard to see Daisy now
13:56:14
<JarnoO> can you get Riverside also in view?
13:56:49
<JarnoO> put*
13:59:23
<LindaG> Pretty
14:00:52
<JarnoO> thanks :)
14:04:26
<JarnoO> 10m for Castle
14:05:36
<JarnoO> Ot ie
14:09:30
<JarnoO> Castle major
14:09:42
<Kevin L™️ > Castle going to steam
14:10:53
<Kevin L™️ > Controls freezing
14:11:12
<JarnoO> at least we caught Castle
14:11:40
<Kevin L™️ > Controls down
14:23:34
<Technetium Talk> Whoa, just saw YNP Winter Storm Watch on Twitter. 12-16" lower elevations, 18-22" higher elevations. Wed-Fri
14:23:59
<JarnoO> Grand
14:24:06
<Kevin L™️ > Where is that?
14:24:22
<LindaG> 😀
14:24:36
<LindaG> There it is
14:25:29
<LindaG> JarnoO, Sad you are on the other side of the pond and saw it before me
14:26:35
<Kevin L™️ > It is much harder to drive on the laptop
14:29:50
<JarnoO> 5m
14:31:30
<JarnoO> Grand looks kinda slow in this eruption
14:32:01

14:33:47
<Ryan (home)> Here for some geyser therapy.
14:33:54
<Ryan (home)> Or steam clouds, which ever comes first.
14:34:19
<Kevin L™️ > Still no bee
14:34:42
<Kat> Hi Ryan - your baby was beautiful! Thinking of you and your family.
14:34:54
<Ryan (home)> A nice Beehive would be appreciated. Thanks, Kat.
14:35:34
<Ryan (home)> Rough day for sure. House is quite without the pitter patter of paws.
14:35:53
<Kevin L™️ > It looks good
14:38:59
<LindaG> I like driving on tablet more than laptop, too cumbersome
14:39:30
<Kevin L™️ > I never could do it on my iPad
14:40:12
<Betty> so sorry , Ryan!
14:43:47
<LindaG> And no visitors
14:44:02
<Ryan (home)> Thanks, Betty! I am currently drawing a cave map, sitting in my living room listening to music while a friends does her work by me to keep me company.
14:47:58
<Kevin L™️ > Controls freezing again
14:57:16
<Kevin L™️ > A little action from Split Cone

<Betty> SC
14:57:45
<Betty> hey, you beat me
14:58:25
<Kevin L™️ > Controls only giving me about 4 fps
14:59:00
<Betty> 2 more than I have :-p
14:59:54

<Betty> steamwall
15:11:04
<Technetium Talk> Gorgeous
15:16:41
<Kevin L™️ > No steam in Daisy area so I am guessing it went during the extended OF window.
15:19:32
<Eric> Our frozen bison getting any company?
15:19:47
<Kevin L™️ > Nope
15:20:12
<Eric> Bummer....good afternoon snack for a pack of wolves
15:21:04
<Betty> time to head out, have a great evening all
15:21:25
<Kevin L™️ > Good knight
15:22:03
<Technetium Talk> What's "great" about the winter storm is that the bison carcass will get buried, then re-emerge when the grizzlies are emerging hungry.
15:22:09
<Technetium Talk> Could be fun.
15:22:52
<Kevin L™️ > Sort of like a frozen TV dinner.
15:32:16
<Eric> I assume if it's still there when the bears come out, LE will move it if visitors are in the UGB
15:33:36
<Kevin L™️ > Probably not. They left one right next to the trail on GH.
15:36:22
<ynpvisitor97> Too many international visitors. I think the cam has that virus.
15:36:30
<Joe> rum
15:36:36

15:37:24
<Joe> nice camera work Kevin!
15:37:35
<Technetium Talk> :thumbsup:
15:47:35
<Kevin L™️ > Still no takers at the Bison Buffet
15:49:18
<Dave from B™> Did coyote ever return this afternoon?
15:49:44
<Kevin L™️ > Nope
15:51:02
<Dave from B™> I wonder if he has a stomach ache
15:51:30
<Kevin L™️ > More like a tooth ache
15:53:47
<Kevin L™️ > Looks like BH is going to wait for the next driver
15:54:10
<LindaG> Oh you saved bee for me?
15:54:25
<Kevin L™️ > I sure did
15:54:38
<LindaG> Thanks!
15:54:47
<LindaG> 😍
15:55:19
<Kevin L™️ > Big splashes and constant steam from bsb
15:55:20
<LindaG> I bet you it waits for joe
15:55:38
<Kevin L™️ > You are probably right
15:55:50
<Dave from B™> In honor of who you are driving for.....GO BEEHIVE
15:56:36
<Kevin L™️ > It even made it to 19 degrees here.
15:57:12
<LindaG> 😀 that's nice but tonight is my shift, his was last night.
15:57:37
<Dave from B™> My apologies. I thought he drove most nights at 1600
15:57:54
<LindaG> I think mon and wed

<Dave from B™> There has to be a lot of meat left on that bison
16:46:23
<Lori S 😎> Maybe it's the lack of snow but it looks smaller
16:46:23
<LindaGp> I would think so
16:46:45
<Lori S 😎> *lack of snow on the carcass
16:48:08
<LindaGp> Lori S 😎, hi
