05:08:18 <ynpvisitor59> Wow
05:08:51 <ynpvisitor10> saw Aurum out of the side of my eye when I was moving to OF
05:09:25 <ynpvisitor59> ynpvisitor10, 😊
05:09:35 <ynpvisitor38> yes was hoping you wouold go back :)
05:10:50 <ynpvisitor10> getting lighter on static
05:11:50 <ynpvisitor59> So it turns out that wasnt steamboat last night. Interesting sure looked a lot like it.
05:12:35 <ynpvisitor10> Yes I saw that...glad Carol and Bill are there
05:13:51 <ynpvisitor59> Yea all the tell tale signs, no steamboat
05:14:34 <ynpvisitor38> If you want to post Grand and Aurum, I'll delete mine. ynpvisitor10,
05:14:55 <ynpvisitor10> no problem...I don't care if I post

05:15:31 <ynpvisitor10> I will call you later if it is okay
05:17:04 <ynpvisitor38> makes no difference to me also, I have more posts entered than i deserve :)
05:17:16 <ynpvisitor38> call any time
05:17:20 <ynpvisitor10> okay
05:18:42 <Ryan> Cant argue against the YNR trace, but the Tantalus spike sure does not look like SB/
05:19:03 <Ryan> Not sudden enough :P
05:19:33 <ynpvisitor10> morning Ryan
05:20:00 <Ryan> But YNR sure looks like it - though I have not looked at ynr enough to know what else can make that trace.
05:20:20 <Ryan> Morning, 10 (Joe or CrC?)
05:20:56 <ynpvisitor10> CC
05:21:30 <Ryan> Ah! Morning! Has it cooled down up there?
05:21:46 <ynpvisitor10> yes....humidity gone
05:21:47 <Ryan> The front passed here and its dropped in temps considerably
05:23:21 <Ryan> The bugsa re out here in full force. They are hungry after winter
05:33:37 <ynpvisitor59> The big difference in saw in YNR trace was it was much more jagged when it started
05:33:50 <JarnoO> morning all
05:34:01 <CC> morning Jarno
05:34:27 <JarnoO> morning Linda
05:34:30 <LindaG> JarnoO, morning
05:45:12 <ynpvisitor38> bulger
05:52:36 <LindaG> Pretty view
05:53:06 <ynpvisitor2> CC, are you going to Yellowstone soon?
05:56:38 <CC> not going at all this summer
05:57:10 <CC> husband is medical issues and is afraid of Covid
05:57:24 <CC> has medical
05:59:29 <Betty> morning all
05:59:32 <CC> morning betty
05:59:49 <Betty> hi CC, LindaG, JarnoO
05:59:52 <JarnoO> afternoon Betty
06:02:24 <Betty> wow, that trace did not mean an eruption? interesting. Glad Carol and Bill are there to tell us
06:02:32 <GO STEAMBOAT> wow nobody logged the SB eruption last nght? :)
06:02:35 <GO STEAMBOAT> morning
06:02:50 <CC> Hey Graham
06:02:51 <Betty> read the note Graham
06:03:13 <JarnoO> morning Graham
06:03:16 <GO STEAMBOAT> even the creek had a big spike on it
06:03:32 <GO STEAMBOAT> yeah i read it and saw the faceboat retraction
06:03:42 <GO STEAMBOAT> haha or facebook
06:03:57 <CC> OF
06:04:04 <GO STEAMBOAT> not like craig to jump the gun
06:04:14 <Betty> lol, faceboat
06:04:36 <GO STEAMBOAT> i wish SB had improved yesterday
06:05:24 <GO STEAMBOAT> it is still waiting for Korben
06:06:09 <GO STEAMBOAT> i think Korben has more than 17h to go tho ..... more like 34
06:12:21 <GO STEAMBOAT> wheres the snow?
06:13:35 <GO STEAMBOAT> i guess its that front thats in S Idaho
06:17:47 <GO STEAMBOAT> MC
06:20:29 <GO STEAMBOAT> morning Craig
06:20:57 <GO STEAMBOAT> what did cb have to say to you?
06:21:21 <JumpedTheGunCra> hey Graham
06:21:40 <JumpedTheGunCra> I haven't talked to cb, I saw her note, so I deleted my entry
06:22:00 <GO STEAMBOAT> i left just before the excitement last night. i didnt realize just had a number
06:22:21 <JumpedTheGunCra> I was also in PM with Jon Lucas, who had talked to a Brian that went and checked after seeing my entry and was reporting no eruption
06:23:04 <GO STEAMBOAT> oh well. its a very odd strng trace
06:23:23 <Betty> morning (JumpedTheGun)Craig
06:23:28 <JumpedTheGunCra> learned a good lesson about putting stock in a seismo trace
06:23:37 <JumpedTheGunCra> hey Betty
06:23:42 <JarnoO> morning Craig
06:23:46 <JumpedTheGunCra> hey Jarno
06:23:57 <JumpedTheGunCra> I was fooled
06:24:15 <GO STEAMBOAT> yeah, notes from YNR are safer. YNM is usually safe unless it does an odd one
06:24:53 <Betty> hey, tell me one person that would not put in an eruption with that trace AND water at tantalus creek
06:25:18 <JumpedTheGunCra> Maureen messaged me an interesting note; Forrest Fenn reported last night that his treasure had been found
06:25:56 <JumpedTheGunCra> Betty, a few people in here last night were hesitant to call it. They look less foolish now ;)
06:27:03 <JarnoO> AB
06:27:17 <JumpedTheGunCra> TSB just posted the Tantalus chart, asking the meaning of it
06:27:41 <JumpedTheGunCra> "Well, then, what is the meaning of this?"
06:27:43 <Betty> you donΒ΄t look foolish to me at all, I lately when that spike on tantalus graph showed up
06:29:53 <JarnoO> Bulger ie
06:30:00 <KorbenC (T-17 h> Morning Everyone
06:30:04 <GO STEAMBOAT> with hindsight you can see the creek level building before SB water would have arrived ....... but it was pretty close
06:30:07 <KorbenC (T-17 h> WOAH, No SB, huh.
06:30:14 <Betty> morning Korben
06:30:20 <GO STEAMBOAT> bulger
06:30:44 <KorbenC (T-17 h> Hi Betty
06:30:56 <KorbenC (T-17 h> looks like maybe it is gonna pull a long itnerval
06:34:47 <GO STEAMBOAT> West gate is empty ... get up and go :)
06:35:02 <GO STEAMBOAT> N Gate looks nice
06:35:52 <KorbenC (T-3 ho> Well, Time for me to go pack the rest of the car. And drive up to Dubois. See everyone on the other side! I will be waving, wish us luck with road conditions. :)
06:37:16 <JarnoO> cya Korben, enjoy the ride
06:41:53 <GO STEAMBOAT> oh cool, i didnt know you were driving part way today. hope there snow vanishes
06:43:20 <GO STEAMBOAT> Dubois is the last community before the Grand Teton NP. spot to gas up before they add another dollar per gallon in the park
06:46:22 <Betty> LS ie
06:46:37 <JarnoO> isn't that Silver?
06:46:56 <JarnoO> or do I have them misaligned again?
06:47:09 <Betty> uhm
06:47:11 <GO STEAMBOAT> i think thatsLS
06:47:27 <GO STEAMBOAT> right below dome
06:48:23 <CraigC> hmmm
06:48:31 <CraigC> I have to zoom in to tell
06:48:47 <GO STEAMBOAT> 3h19 for Daisy so far, proababy woring on a 4h+ double?
06:48:57 <JarnoO> think so
06:49:11 <GO STEAMBOAT> i see the 2h27 long interval in the storm
06:53:37 <Betty> looks like Little Squirt to me
06:54:22 <JarnoO> oki
06:55:46 <CraigC> hmmm
06:57:09 <GO STEAMBOAT> did anyone hear how Erics climb went?
06:57:25 <Betty> where did he go?
06:57:29 <CraigC> is he back yet?
06:57:57 <GO STEAMBOAT> another Mt St Helens trip
06:58:10 <Betty> ah, nice
06:58:11 <GO STEAMBOAT> i thought he wassupposed to finish Sat
06:59:45 <GO STEAMBOAT> gates are still empty ... time to visit
07:00:04 <GO STEAMBOAT> ake cam is nice
07:00:08 <GO STEAMBOAT> ake
07:00:11 <GO STEAMBOAT> lake
07:00:44 <JarnoO> splash
07:01:13 <CraigC> I wonder if the snow storm is still going to hit YNP
07:15:47 <LindaG> Morning all again.
07:16:07 <Betty> wb Linda
07:16:44 <LindaG> Betty, hi
07:17:02 <JarnoO> hi Betty
07:17:09 <JarnoO> Linda*
07:17:16 <LindaG> JarnoO, hi
07:17:27 <LindaG> So no steamboat, huh
07:17:28 <CraigC> hey Linda
07:17:49 <LindaG> CraigC, hi
07:17:59 <CraigC> LindaG, yeah, you were the smart one in not entering it
07:18:09 <LindaG> CraigC, hehe
07:18:54 <LindaG> I thought about posting it with a question mark but saw that you posted
07:19:21 <LindaG> CraigC, it was an honest mistake
07:19:29 <CraigC> :)
07:19:48 <CraigC> valuable lesson about YNR
07:19:48 <LindaG> I'm sure most thought it was too
07:20:00 <CraigC> and also Tantalus
07:20:08 <CraigC> they can fool us
07:20:23 <CraigC> *some of us
07:20:26 <LindaG> CraigC, yeah the questionable thing was that it was so jagged in beginning
07:21:54 <LindaG> So what do they think it was?
07:22:28 <CraigC> ?
07:23:15 <LindaG> CraigC, what do they think caused the trace on seismo?
07:23:45 <CraigC> I don't know
07:23:54 <JarnoO> cb suggested a heavy hail storm
07:24:28 <LindaG> πŸ‘
07:27:42 <GO STEAMBOAT> more steam from Daisy now
07:28:01 <GO STEAMBOAT> and at 4h mark ... so maybe soon
07:28:18 <CC> maybe during OF
07:28:44 <GO STEAMBOAT> probably ....... haha
07:28:46 <CC> we are in the OF window
07:28:53 <JarnoO> typical
07:29:12 <CC> Lion could go as well
07:29:12 <GO STEAMBOAT> a few cars coming to West gate, about time someone showed up
07:29:59 <GO STEAMBOAT> i woner if today will be quieter given the weather and yesterday being the first weekend day of he West opeing?
07:32:12 <CC> Lion
07:32:38 <KorbenC(phone)> so, to explain the seismic trace and tantalus thingy....
07:33:09 <Betty> Lynn is there
07:33:38 <CC> I just saw that
07:33:46 <KorbenC(phone)> barometric pressure, cape, and NEXRAD 3 show a large multicell storm that passed over that area last night. It appears to have produced roughly penny sized hail, and lots of heavy rain. This storm was higly localized which is why it did njot how up in other spots around the park.
07:33:53 <CC> I had posted near start for Lion
07:35:01 <LindaG> KorbenC(phone), πŸ‘
07:35:08 <JarnoO> Daisy ie
07:35:20 <CC> thanks Jarno on Daisy
07:35:42 <KorbenC(phone)> LindaG, thanks for the email, even though there was not an SB
07:35:42 <JarnoO> actually ns
07:35:55 <LindaG> KorbenC(phone), yw
07:36:03 <CC> I was just checking Daisy when you posted
07:36:26 <KorbenC(phone)> I am now thinking it is gonna have a near double interval, so Wednesday at like 1053
07:37:11 <GO STEAMBOAT> nice of Lynn to come up and post times. Till between intervals and GF must have been out of window too
07:37:13 <CraigC> how many days is a double interval for Steamboat
07:37:36 <KorbenC(phone)> Craig 6 days 18 hours 58 minutes
07:39:23 <ynpvisitor87> https://www.yellowstone.org/update-from-yf/ My Park County reporter says pandemic whine is just an excuse for poor management.
07:42:08 <GO STEAMBOAT> well 87 - while there might be poor management, keeping an institute staffed when you can't hold classes is a questionble use of finances too. Mayn small non-profits are facing this problem now .. if you can't do your mission, what do you keep paying for as you have no income for it too
07:43:19 <GO STEAMBOAT> it would be like me paying for vacations that I know I cant go on
07:44:07 <GO STEAMBOAT> arts orgs have the same problem, with seasons cancelled for an indefinate period, do you keep staff on when you have virtually no income and limited reserves - that can push them into bankrupcy
07:44:27 <GO STEAMBOAT> what do you think 87?
07:45:30 <ynpvisitor74> YF was screwed up long before Covid imo
07:46:12 <GO STEAMBOAT> should they keep paying for the YI with nobody able to be there for clases?
07:46:42 <GO STEAMBOAT> they should pay for facility maintenance
07:47:22 <GO STEAMBOAT> nobody wants to answer the question?
07:48:17 <GO STEAMBOAT> Cabelas gift cards, 10% off, thts free money
07:48:30 <CC> OF
07:50:23 <GO STEAMBOAT> 87 still silent - throws a topic in chat and then retreats
07:52:24 <ynpvisitor74> from what I read the Institute was the ONLY part of YF operating in the black, right up to end of 2019
07:53:16 <GO STEAMBOAT> ok, but what should they do in pandemic 2020 when they almost certainly would lose money and not be doing their mission?
07:53:37 <JarnoO> I don't think mismanagement on its own is the direct cause of the YF (or YI or what's-it-called). It may have started a chain reaction, with the pandemic as final nail on the coffin
07:53:46 <GO STEAMBOAT> if it was your budget, what would you do?
07:54:31 <JarnoO> direct cause of the YF (or YI or what's-it-called) collapse*
07:54:32 <GO STEAMBOAT> JarnoO - YI is the educational part of YF, it runs classes but they have been cancelled this year intil further notice
07:54:38 <CC> I think if was definitely mismanaged funds
07:54:38 <GO STEAMBOAT> so YF has suspended the YI
07:55:13 <JarnoO> thanks
07:55:48 <CC> The higher ups took big salaries and let the YI suffer
07:55:49 <GO STEAMBOAT> thats why i am asking, is suspending it when they cant do classes the right or wrong decision ..... I think its the right one
07:56:19 <CC> I don't think YF cares about education
07:56:19 <GO STEAMBOAT> peple would complain if they funded classes that cant happen too
07:56:52 <GO STEAMBOAT> well they have continued to hold them. not sure if they have good attendance and reviews from participants- I have never been on one
07:57:00 <CraigC> keeping people employed keeps an economy more stable
07:57:02 <CC> When they combined YA ad YF I gave up on a them.
07:57:17 <CC> YA always made money
07:57:28 <CC> and had greatclasses
07:57:50 <GO STEAMBOAT> so Craig - you wuld advocate taking funds from other YF programs to support the YI when they cant do classes? which parts of YF programs would you stop?
07:58:07 <GO STEAMBOAT> and would they be able to generate revenue if they stop other programs?
07:58:09 <CraigC> would you put words in my mouth
07:58:32 <GO STEAMBOAT> ok, would you ....
07:58:49 <GO STEAMBOAT> it was a question :)
07:59:32 <GO STEAMBOAT> oh well, seems like I am out on a limb here ...... haha
07:59:50 <CraigC> I havent managed it, so I dont have management answers..... but my opinion stands, that keeping people employed should be a priority
08:00:15 <ynpvisitor74> the higher ups were getting exorbitant salaries, fire them
08:00:37 <GO STEAMBOAT> I have seen so many arts orgs make the hard decisions to cut staff because they lost the income and dont have reserves to cover expenses. almost impossible to fundraise too
08:01:04 <GO STEAMBOAT> many non-profits will go into bankrupcy I think
08:01:27 <CraigC> I read lots of articles of CEOs still getting bonuses while RIFs are happening
08:02:08 <CraigC> our nation has serious problems
08:02:13 <GO STEAMBOAT> wow I am not seeing that in non-profits, well they dont get bonuses anyway .. but many have cut or donated income
08:02:36 <CraigC> the wrong people are protected too often
08:02:53 <GO STEAMBOAT> who are the wrong people Craig?
08:03:09 <CraigC> ha
08:03:28 <CraigC> what a stupid question, carry on
08:03:37 <CraigC> argue away
08:03:54 <JarnoO> Dep ie?
08:03:56 <ynpvisitor74> Ihope the whole things folds and we start over, separating education from whatever else they thought they would do
08:04:02 <GO STEAMBOAT> haha i am glad i dont manage a non-profit or a business
08:04:38 <GO STEAMBOAT> interesting, throw them all out of work and liquidate
08:05:13 <JarnoO> no Dep. Bubble crash maybe
08:05:39 <ynpvisitor74> I bet that is what will happen
08:06:11 <GO STEAMBOAT> yeah, a lot of orgs will go bankrupt this year
08:07:05 <GO STEAMBOAT> a lot folded after the great recession too as they lost doners and customers
08:08:43 <GO STEAMBOAT> stil no line at West Gate
08:11:51 <JarnoO> good steam on Churn
08:12:01 <JarnoO> like with any feature now, haha
08:12:31 <LindaG> Maybe people thought it was going to snow and stayed home
08:12:43 <ynpvisitor6> what is that on the seismo about 1945 yesterday?
08:13:01 <JarnoO> hail
08:13:12 <JarnoO> of the heavy kind
08:13:15 <CraigC> ynpvisitor6, I am going with "I don't know"
08:13:49 <ynpvisitor6> for 2 hrs?
08:13:59 <CraigC> I don't know
08:14:02 <CraigC> :)
08:14:09 <JarnoO> it definitely wasn't Steamboat
08:14:20 <ynpvisitor6> btw, lc here
08:14:28 <JarnoO> morning lc
08:14:34 <Betty> hi lc :-)
08:14:38 <ynpvisitor6> morning
08:14:50 <CraigC> ynpvisitor6, hey lc! I entered it last night as a Steamboat eruption. I was wrong
08:15:20 <ynpvisitor6> it sure looks different.
08:26:51 <Betty> morning Jake
08:26:52 <JarnoO> morning Jake
08:32:55 <Jake> Morning all
08:42:08 <Jake> YF maybe could have had cash to weather the pandemic if not previously mismanaged
08:43:19 <Jake> I don't know how much of their revenue comes from big donors and corporations vs regular people but this fiasco will will turn off regular people from donating
08:44:04 <Jake> And donations from everyone including corps will be down
08:44:22 <Jake> How many employees did the institute have?
08:45:30 <CraigC> hey Jake and Jeff
08:45:38 <Betty> hi Jeff
08:45:38 <Jeff> hey craig
08:45:40 <JarnoO> morning Jeff
08:45:52 <Jeff> hey JarnoO
08:46:14 <Jake> The buffalo ranch has a lot of value. I wonder if there's something in the NPS contract about not holding classes or using the facility
08:46:26 <JarnoO> Riverside
08:46:32 <Jake> There ought to be
08:49:53 <Betty> why is Lion not on the prediction board? Last was 0731
08:50:21 <Betty> does it not fit on it anymore?
08:51:05 <CC> Keeping and eye on Lion and Castle
08:51:05 <JarnoO> probably an error on that board's part. I've seen it do that a few times
08:52:02 <JarnoO> deceiving Riverside steam drift
08:52:42 <Betty> we need to ask Eric about that
08:52:52 <Jake> Someday we'll get a Lion prediction in GT
08:57:02 <JarnoO> HK uploaded a video of the May 31 Steamboat: https://vimeo.com/426358323
08:57:27 <Jake> Jarno, have you figured out how to predict which Lion eruption will be the last in the series? :D
08:58:10 <JarnoO> not sure if there was a tree had fallen into Steamboat's steerage runoff channel last year sometime, but there is now one there
08:59:11 <JarnoO> Jake, I haven't. Would require way, way more observation of Lion (and related geysers) to maybe some day have some answer :)
09:01:10 <Forestbewithyou> YO whats going on guys
09:02:22 <Betty> morning Forestbewithyou
09:02:25 <JarnoO> morning Forest
09:02:39 <Forestbewithyou> good morning
09:02:58 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, hi
09:04:00 <Forestbewithyou> Steamboat is really chugging along.
09:04:28 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, no steamboat last night☹
09:04:55 <Forestbewithyou> oh?
09:05:09 <Forestbewithyou> I must have seen an old facebook post then
09:05:24 <Forestbewithyou> I dunno
09:05:25 <Forestbewithyou> weird
09:05:26 <Forestbewithyou> lol
09:05:57 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, it was posted, but concensus decided that it wasnt
09:07:30 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, they were discussing g possible hail storm
09:08:22 <JarnoO> there's also an in-basin note which says there wasn't an eruption
09:08:38 <LindaG> JarnoO, πŸ‘
09:10:10 <Forestbewithyou> ahh ok
09:13:41 <JarnoO> Lion seems end of series
09:14:04 <CraigC> Forestbewithyou, sorry, I jumped the gun. ;)
09:14:20 <CC> oF windowanyway
09:15:14 <GO STEAMBOAT> 0915 and still no line at West gate
09:15:29 <GO STEAMBOAT> time for a walk, bbl
09:15:36 <JarnoO> cya Graham
09:15:41 <Forestbewithyou> oh you wern't the only one if I rember correctly Craig
09:15:43 <Betty> enjoy
09:16:07 <Forestbewithyou> its ok. I almost jumped the gun as well once.
09:16:12 <CraigC> Forestbewithyou, I did the GT entry, though
09:16:18 <Forestbewithyou> oh.
09:16:28 <CraigC> lesson learned, I didnt observe it directly
09:16:34 <Forestbewithyou> yea

10:03:36 <JarnoO> "I may be in solitary confinement, but I won't let them get away with it that easily!"
10:03:49 <Forestbewithyou> lol
10:14:38 <OCDsufferer> Breller time.
10:20:02 <OCDsufferer> Stay outside and get soaked, or go in the cafeteria and get soaked.
10:23:54 <LindaG> Wonder if it's still supposed to snow, I guess maybe overnight
10:25:32 <LindaG> Well I'm off for some ,birding bbl
10:25:47 <LindaG> Based on camera I have good timing
10:25:53 <Betty> have fun
10:26:03 <LindaG> Betty, thx
10:26:42 <Ryan> Just woke back up
10:26:52 <Ryan> Fell back asleep for three hours....
10:27:20 <Betty> morning Ryan, seems you were really tired :-)
10:28:02 <Forestbewithyou> this should all blow over shortly it seems
10:28:11 <Forestbewithyou> the rain/snow/grauple
10:28:14 <Forestbewithyou> or what ever it is
10:30:39 <Ryan> Yeah our tri yesterday left me fairl wiped out
10:31:38 <ynpvisitor77> More from Park County. https://www.nationalparkstraveler.org/2020/06/yellowstone-forever-shutters-institute-financial-position-described-unsustainable?fbclid=IwAR19TdcayvAAuneHTkvvw0G6W0E2Wp0GU89NOjcKqyYMgsdBBNZAUHnx3BE
10:45:08 <Ryan> Bee is splashy
10:53:14 <JarnoO> Grand
10:56:02 <ynpvisitor99> DaveM, I deleted mine :)
11:01:00 <JarnoO> OF
11:37:56 <GO STEAMBOAT> back, another nice walk on the GW Parkway
11:38:00 <GO STEAMBOAT> did I miss anything?
11:38:10 <GO STEAMBOAT> looks like the rush has gone at the gte :)
11:38:37 <Forestbewithyou> wb and I don't think you missed anything
11:38:59 <Forestbewithyou> what time did you leave
11:39:33 <GO STEAMBOAT> hahadoesnt look like it mattered Forest
11:39:50 <GO STEAMBOAT> but it was at 0915
11:40:18 <GO STEAMBOAT> no stimulating discussion/argument while I was gone either :(
11:41:51 <Forestbewithyou> not really and I wasn't really paying attention to the chat or the webcam either
11:41:53 <Forestbewithyou> tbh
11:43:13 <Forestbewithyou> I am going to hop off for a bit to do some cleaning. Talk to you all later
11:58:53 <GO STEAMBOAT> bulger
12:00:22 <Betty> Daisy ie?
12:00:45 <Betty> yep
12:00:48 <GO STEAMBOAT> yep
12:03:57 <GO STEAMBOAT> another delay for Daisy due to rain i guess
12:13:48 <ynpvisitor37> At least it's not raining now.
12:14:32 <GO STEAMBOAT> thbeautiful place to be
12:15:43 <GO STEAMBOAT> i see they closed Beartooth. i wonder if Craig Pass will be closed tomorrow, impacting Korben
12:25:39 <GO STEAMBOAT> quite a few people there given the crappy weather
12:25:58 <GO STEAMBOAT> or despite the crappy weather
12:27:05 <ynpvisitor37> Can't go in for hot chocolate at the Bear Pit today.
12:32:43 <ynpvisitor83> What's the over and under for how long to clear the boardwalk post eruption?
12:33:15 <ynpvisitor37> I'll be surprised if anyone sticks it out to the end.
12:33:28 <GO STEAMBOAT> geyser grill probably does hot chocolate?
12:33:41 <GO STEAMBOAT> Lodge bake shop wil be open on Monday
12:34:17 <ynpvisitor37> That will be convenient. Geyser grill is a bit of a hike.
12:34:19 <GO STEAMBOAT> this must be their one OF eruption of the trip, why else would they wait?
12:34:41 <GO STEAMBOAT> still some people coming through the gate
12:35:30 <ynpvisitor37> They're making the best of a cold situation.
12:35:54 <GO STEAMBOAT> wildlife maybe out and about
12:36:33 <GO STEAMBOAT> eager to get in before the crowds show up
12:45:27 <GO STEAMBOAT> still quite afew peeps milling around
13:16:08 <ynpvisitor4> what are they doing
13:49:21 <ynpvisitor49> .
13:49:22 <ynpvisitor49> .
13:49:23 <ynpvisitor49> .
13:49:43 <ynpvisitor49> Aurum
13:50:08 <Betty> man, IΒ΄m lagged
13:50:20 <Betty> thanks for the dings
13:50:56 <kcmule> if I wasn't lagged I'd miss pretty much everything
13:56:51 <JarnoO> oh hi Lion ini
13:57:20 <Betty> hi kcmule
13:58:23 <kcmule> howdy
14:23:20 <JarnoO> Daisy ie
14:27:41 <JarnoO> nice AB
14:32:43 <JarnoO> OT ie
14:34:47 <Forestbewithyou> I am back
14:34:54 <Forestbewithyou> did I miss anything super important
14:35:03 <JarnoO> you missed an Aurum
14:35:50 <Forestbewithyou> anything else :(
14:37:13 <JarnoO> Riverside ie
14:37:44 <Forestbewithyou> oh nice
14:46:01 <ynpvisitor83> That cone is hard to spot. The top matches the wet runoff and the dry bottom matches the dry area.
14:46:55 <Forestbewithyou> for beehive
14:46:57 <Forestbewithyou> ?
14:47:17 <ynpvisitor83> yes
14:47:30 <Forestbewithyou> I would agree
14:57:52 <Betty> headed out, enjoy BH
14:58:03 <Forestbewithyou> bye betty
14:58:08 <Forestbewithyou> Betty
14:58:10 <JarnoO> cya Betty
15:04:06 <JarnoO> LC ie
15:06:00 <Forestbewithyou> hi Linda
15:07:20 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, hi
15:07:53 <ynpvisitor83> Almost heard that one from here.
15:07:59 <Forestbewithyou> that was quite the puff of steam
15:08:00 <Forestbewithyou> yea
15:09:07 <LindaG> Black-necked stilts and avocets birding today, two rare birds for Jersey
15:09:44 <ynpvisitor23> Not so uncommon down this way
15:10:22 <Forestbewithyou> I am going for a wal
15:10:24 <Forestbewithyou> walk
15:10:30 <Forestbewithyou> I will be back soon
15:10:31 <LindaG> Always interesting what common and what's rare by state
15:10:39 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, enjoy
15:11:26 <LindaG> Hi jeff
15:11:26 <ynpvisitor83> I hope beehive is back soon. Outside it's window now.
15:11:39 <jeFF> hi linda
15:15:10 <ynpvisitor76> I think the BH window is 24h +/- 20h now.
15:15:41 <GO STEAMBOAT> nice fresh snow on washburn cam
15:57:36 <LindaG> Oh nice static OF
15:57:57 <LindaG> And then ther is the snow
16:13:15 <ynpvisitor76> BSB?
16:14:02 <Forestbewithyou> is that indy?
16:14:12 <Forestbewithyou> or is it just the bad quality on my end
16:14:15 <ynpvisitor76> I think so
16:14:27 <Jeff> looks like it
16:14:36 <Forestbewithyou> what time did it start?
16:15:00 <Jeff> maybe not going?
16:15:02 <ynpvisitor76> I believe it is but not 100% sure
16:15:14 <Forestbewithyou> if only we could get the camera to zoom in
16:15:21 <Forestbewithyou> it sure looks like ti
16:15:22 <Forestbewithyou> it
16:15:42 <Forestbewithyou> there is like a crowd and everything
16:15:54 <LindaG> I dont think so
16:15:54 <ynpvisitor15> indy or not??
16:15:57 <GO STEAMBOAT> i think there would be more steam
16:16:00 <Forestbewithyou> Ok
16:16:14 <Jeff> thats what was making me think it wasnt
16:16:15 <ynpvisitor76> It may just be cone splashing but you can't tell from this view.
16:16:19 <Forestbewithyou> yea
16:16:30 <Forestbewithyou> I thought I saw water which is why I was asking
16:16:30 <ynpvisitor76> And this view for sure.
16:16:44 <Forestbewithyou> I am assuming that at least one of those people is a gazer
16:16:49 <Forestbewithyou> so they would enter it
16:16:52 <Forestbewithyou> if it was indy
16:16:53 <LindaG> I enlarged my tablet screen looks like steam from cone
16:16:58 <Forestbewithyou> ok
16:22:15 <ynpvisitor10> most of the people in the basin were not gazers when I was there
16:22:38 <Forestbewithyou> yea
16:22:44 <ynpvisitor10> Daisy
16:22:46 <Jeff> i think a good chuck of them are probably up at norris right now
16:23:04 <Jeff> chunk*
16:23:20 <Forestbewithyou> I would agree with you Jeff after looking at logged eruptions
16:23:37 <ynpvisitor52> Some are chunky.
16:23:38 <Forestbewithyou> it doesn't look like many in-basin reports for the UGB
16:23:56 <ynpvisitor10> yes, quality distancing time
16:23:59 <Jeff> believe me i know 52 im one of the chunky ones lol
16:24:34 <Forestbewithyou> lol
16:24:46 <Jeff> i still havent planned out my geyser trip yet for the couple days ill be there before i start working
16:24:49 <ynpvisitor10> we have had several daytime eruptions, so wondering if the next one will be overnight
16:25:03 <Forestbewithyou> I still haven't planned anything for this summer
16:25:04 <Jeff> thats what im thinking
16:25:19 <Jeff> i feel like itll be around 130 or 2 in the morning
16:25:26 <Forestbewithyou> I am thinking that the next time I go I want to try and see the Milky Way
16:25:39 <Forestbewithyou> and do some stargazing
16:26:03 <Jeff> i might try and do some astrophotography this summer
16:26:04 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, that sounds nice
16:26:28 <ynpvisitor10> great fountain area is a good place for that
16:26:58 <Jeff> ill probably sit at white dome
16:27:32 <ynpvisitor76> Keep a watch for bear.
16:27:50 <ynpvisitor10> and face away from lodge
16:27:51 <ynpvisitor52> Don't trip over Lynn in the dark.
16:28:06 <Forestbewithyou> yea
16:28:10 <Jeff> ill have bear spray with me, a flashlight, and probably playhing some music
16:28:37 <ynpvisitor10> Lynn isn't usually there at night
16:28:41 <LindaG> Jeff, πŸ‘
16:28:47 <Forestbewithyou> I have seen some amazing pictures of Great Fountain at dusk
16:28:59 <Forestbewithyou> they are amazing
16:29:06 <ynpvisitor15> what kind of music do bears like??
16:29:19 <Jeff> idk ill find out and report my findings
16:29:33 <Forestbewithyou> probably not heavy rock
16:29:39 <Forestbewithyou> or metal
16:29:44 <Forestbewithyou> that would probably scare them
16:29:46 <LindaG> Try 'dancing in the dark'
16:29:50 <ynpvisitor76> Just try not to smell like a bison.
16:29:50 <Jeff> ill create a full playlist
16:30:02 <ynpvisitor52> Bison hate Hendrix.
16:30:30 <Forestbewithyou> well there is at least one gazer in the UGB
16:31:30 <Jeff> theres so many geysers i wanna see this year and so little time
16:32:40 <LindaG> Dep looks like its heating up
16:32:40 <Forestbewithyou> I know how you feel
16:33:37 <ynpvisitor10> Grand
16:33:39 <LindaG> Grand
16:33:53 <Jeff> i got about 3 1/2 months to see as many new geysers as possible instead of the almost 6 1/2 months as originally planned
16:34:03 <ynpvisitor15> many minutes ago
16:34:30 <ynpvisitor10> Jeff, enjoy the pools. Many of them are really pretty.
16:34:49 <LindaG> Jeff, nice thing is its light till around 9 or so
16:34:54 <ynpvisitor10> Oval near Spasmodic is very colorful
16:35:00 <Forestbewithyou> for me I started gazing the year in 2018 or the year steamboat started and I think of that as a blessing and as a curse
16:35:04 <ynpvisitor15> some maybe purple
16:35:18 <Jeff> forest thats when i started
16:35:37 <LindaG> Me too sort of
16:35:39 <ynpvisitor10> there are 2 that are purple, but some idiot made them purple
16:35:49 <ynpvisitor10> it isn't natural
16:36:28 <Forestbewithyou> yea I think of it as a blessing because I can say I have seen a steamboat but at the same time it is a curse because had I started earlier I wouldn't have spent as much time in norris as I have the past two years and maybe seen some other geysers that I want to
16:36:46 <ynpvisitor10> also if it is very windy and warm, I found I got some cool photos of Grand Prismatic
16:36:57 <Jeff> forest at least you can say youve seen steamboat
16:36:58 <Forestbewithyou> because I really want to see another steamboat because I want to see the buildup to the major. I missed it because I was walking the back basin
16:37:16 <Jeff> yea 10 i wanna actually get some photos of grand prismatic this year
16:37:25 <ynpvisitor10> lot of steam over at Artemisia
16:37:37 <Forestbewithyou> yea
16:38:05 <Forestbewithyou> Hi Craig
16:38:14 <CraigC> hey Forest
16:38:17 <Jeff> hey craig
16:38:21 <CraigC> hey Jeff
16:38:22 <LindaG> CraigC, hey
16:38:24 <Forestbewithyou> how are you doing Craig
16:38:26 <CraigC> hey Linda
16:38:47 <CraigC> tired, been loading stuff in truck and trailer.... how about you
16:39:27 <Forestbewithyou> I am doing ok
16:39:29 <LindaG> CraigC, when are you leaving?
16:39:37 <Forestbewithyou> I have felt really productive today as I cleaned my room
16:39:47 <CraigC> I think we'll hit the road on Tusday
16:39:49 <LindaG> πŸ™‚
16:39:58 <LindaG> CraigC, nice
16:40:10 <Forestbewithyou> are you going to Yellowstone Craig?
16:40:23 <CraigC> my gf's last day of work is tomorrow, then off for 6 weeks
16:40:41 <Jeff> nice
16:41:20 <LindaG> My brother used to do that his wife was a teacher and he would take long trips in summer
16:41:59 <CraigC> I still have to come back and mow lawns, and do laundry
16:42:13 <LindaG> CraigC, no
16:43:05 <LindaG> Stay dirty hire someone to mow
16:43:12 <CraigC> ;)
16:43:33 <Forestbewithyou> or just let the grass grow...
16:43:38 <Forestbewithyou> lol
16:43:52 <Forestbewithyou> Craig comes back and there is like 10 foot grass
16:43:54 <CraigC> I try to be a somewhat decent neighbor
16:43:55 <ynpvisitor76> Is that legal in Utah?
16:44:01 <Forestbewithyou> yea
16:44:06 <Forestbewithyou> oh I don't know
16:44:08 <Forestbewithyou> 76
16:44:22 <ynpvisitor77> South Bubbler and Close to Cone are separate sputs?
16:44:37 <ynpvisitor27> yes
16:44:48 <ynpvisitor77> Thanks.
16:44:57 <ynpvisitor27> they are on opposite sides of the cone from eachother
16:45:04 <ynpvisitor7> I don't think Close-to-Cone has been seen in a while, but it's behind and right of the cone from this angle.
16:46:00 <GO STEAMBOAT> wheresthe roomba mower when you need it?
16:46:05 <Forestbewithyou> yea
16:46:11 <LindaG> πŸ˜ƒ
16:46:37 <LindaG> I would hire someone, heck i do hire someone
16:46:53 <ynpvisitor76> They have a version of that which runs on electricity. Mows the lawn and parks itself in the charger.
16:46:55 <ynpvisitor52> Cats wouldn't try to ride on of those.
16:46:58 <CraigC> maybe someday
16:47:10 <Forestbewithyou> really 76?

16:48:01 <LindaG> There ya go craig
16:48:33 <ynpvisitor76> Also massages your neighbor's mailbox.
16:49:01 <KevinS> My mother just called me and said the Fenn treasure was found in Yellowstone
16:49:28 <LindaG> KevinS, 😳
16:50:08 <LindaG> It's in the news
16:50:42 <LindaG> https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jun/07/forrest-fenn-treasure-rocky-mountains-found
16:51:13 <LindaG> CraigC, you dont have to go now ☹
16:52:20 <Forestbewithyou> I am going to eat dinner
16:52:23 <Forestbewithyou> be right back
16:52:32 <LindaG> KevinS, hi
16:52:41 <KevinS> LindaG, hi
16:53:13 <CraigC> LindaG, ;0 Already posted about it early this morning. Maureen sent me the link
16:53:22 <LindaG> CraigC, oh
16:53:37 <CraigC> Udo and Micah also posted earlier about it
16:53:43 <KevinS> My mother was mistaking. does not know where found
16:54:21 <KevinS> CraigC, Sorry about the encouragement last night. I was fooled too on YNR
16:54:22 <GO STEAMBOAT> guess I have to find something else to search for this summer
16:54:39 <CraigC> But until I hear or see better proof than Fenn just saying it, I am still open to the idea that he made it up and is saying this to end the scam.
16:55:21 <LindaG> Well yeah if he wont say where it was it does sound like a scam
16:55:27 <CraigC> KevinS, thanks. We learned a great lesson about inferring eruptions without directly observing them.
16:55:39 <KevinS> I agree. But the pressure will be on him for proof
16:55:57 <LindaG> KevinS, I posted article above
16:56:33 <KevinS> CraigC, We failed to look at other seismos nearby. They all had the same signiture which would have been a major red flag. Lesson learned.
16:59:09 <CraigC> :thumbsup:
17:00:41 <GO STEAMBOAT> so Grand was a D0
17:00:53 <LindaG> KevinS, wow I didnt know the other seismos had it
17:01:23 <CraigC> well, if we ever find out that there was a treasure and where it was, my guess was either by one of the little creeks flowing into the south side of Hebgen, or below Hebgen maybe up Cabin Creek
17:02:23 <LindaG> I can see withholding name, but not withholding location
17:02:40 <CraigC> my guess is you also had to get wet, "worth the cold"
17:03:36 <CraigC> maybe Fenn will figure out some way to monetize the reveal
17:04:25 <CraigC> I bet he made way more money selling his books, than however much he put in the chest
17:06:46 <LindaG> Hey kid
17:08:29 <GO STEAMBOAT> bulger
17:08:29 <ynpvisitor101> Cam op should have access to a Predator Drone :)
17:08:55 <CraigC> ynpvisitor101, what is that
17:09:21 <KevinS> CraigC, Military grade drone
17:09:22 <ynpvisitor101> Flies around and shoots ISIS leadership
17:09:30 <CraigC> OMG
17:09:43 <ynpvisitor76> Or conewalkers.
17:10:07 <CraigC> I wouldn't want my finger on THAT trigger......
17:10:14 <GO STEAMBOAT> i can see the ops now ..... what does this button do? click .....
17:10:26 <ynpvisitor101> :)
17:11:11 <CraigC> next protests would end being "Conewalkers lives matter"
17:11:11 <LindaG> πŸ˜ƒ
17:11:25 <ynpvisitor7> Boardwalk repair could become a real problem.
17:12:16 <LindaG> Wed have new found respect yaha
17:12:21 <Forestbewithyou> I am back
17:12:58 <CraigC> with cooper gone, who is going to enter everything now?
17:13:03 <GO STEAMBOAT> we will dominate the boardwalks
17:13:10 <CraigC> bulger has been ie, ot is ie
17:13:34 <CraigC> Graham steps up, fills some huge shoes
17:13:34 <Forestbewithyou> I would but I am 30 seconds behind and have terrible internet so it is constantly lagging
17:13:41 <GO STEAMBOAT> i put in bulger because i noted it in chat
17:13:56 <GO STEAMBOAT> dont now when OT showed up
17:14:20 <CraigC> get vid would show
17:14:52 <KevinS> CraigC, Did you consider that all the clue given last week led to the Fenn treasure find? Maybe like Craig saying look behind a waterfall?
17:15:39 <LindaG> Like rappelling a waterfall?
17:16:01 <CraigC> where were people giving clues last week? I remember saying I guessed it might be behind a waterfall or something because of the "worth the cold" clue
17:16:04 <KevinS> LindaG, That would be fun.
17:16:05 <LindaG> Hello lori hello
17:16:31 <KevinS> CraigC, That is what I was referring to
17:16:34 <Lori S> hello Linda hello
17:16:51 <CraigC> KevinS, you think someone found it because of me saying that in here?
17:16:54 <Lori S> worth the cold?
17:17:15 <KevinS> Not that I believe it, but putting that possiblity in your head was worth it!
17:17:16 <Lori S> There is no wort the cold
17:17:32 <LindaG> Maybe MG found it
17:17:39 <CraigC> Lori S, So hear me all and listen good, Your effort will be worth the cold.
17:17:39 <Lori S> LindaG, lol
17:18:04 <Lori S> CraigC, ahhh, at the beginning
17:18:10 <CraigC> no, at the end
17:18:20 <CraigC> http://fennclues.com/the-poem.html
17:18:33 <CraigC> when I read forums, so many overlook that line
17:18:58 <Lori S> CraigC, Bob will give me a hrd time on this one since I repeated the main body to him regularly
17:19:05 <CraigC> ;)
17:19:44 <CraigC> and many overlook his interview when he said consider an 80 year old making 2 trips to place it in an afternoon
17:20:04 <Lori S> CraigC, that part I got
17:20:10 <CraigC> people died from ignoring that
17:20:47 <Lori S> I noticed last week that the wherewarmwatershalt.com site went to "access forbidden" and wondered if someone found it
17:20:55 <KevinS> What was the max elevation hint?
17:21:05 <CraigC> KevinS, I forget
17:21:38 <CraigC> the mysterious writings page has all the interview clues compiled
17:22:33 <Lori S> Well, I guess it wasn't up Glen creek near Rustic Falls (my guess)
17:22:50 <CraigC> Lori S, where is that
17:23:02 <Lori S> Golden Gate
17:23:27 <CraigC> I would be really bugged if it turns out in the park
17:23:55 <Lori S> Sounds like he isn't gonna say where it was. Many people will revolt
17:24:22 <CraigC> if he doesn't, then I call scam, that there never was a treasure
17:24:56 <ynpvisitor101> I am wondering about taxes?
17:25:08 <Lori S> someone out here commented on fb there are runors it was near Quake Lake area
17:25:35 <LindaG> He'll look like an idiot if he doesnt tell
17:25:36 <ynpvisitor52> Taxes, we don't need no stinking taxes.
17:25:48 <CraigC> Lori S, hope so, then my guess is close
17:26:16 <Lori S> LindaG, I think that won't matter to him
17:26:16 <CraigC> I figured home of Brown was Hebgen or Bakers Hole
17:26:34 <Lori S> because of trout?
17:26:55 <CraigC> Lori S, for Hebgen yes, for Bakers, because of a trapper named Brown
17:26:56 <LindaG> Lori S, ah
17:27:29 <CraigC> hmmm, maybe he wasn't a trapper..... now I forgot
17:27:42 <CraigC> maybe he was a military person
17:28:00 <Lori S> Baker's Hole would fit his comments that he used to store stuff in the park in winter (illegally) when he had FennHaven
17:28:45 <CraigC> "There used to be a settlement called Brown's Camp there (on the 1915 map)."
17:29:24 <Lori S> I really want ot know if "meek" referred to the Sheepeaters
17:30:18 <Lori S> heave=y loads and waters high...def fits Quake Lake
17:30:19 <KevinS> Fenn has to disclose the location. People will want answers to the clue meanings
17:30:29 <CraigC> I think it might just mean be wary of bears
17:30:49 <CraigC> heavy loads can also refer to fly casting
17:31:13 <CraigC> casting big stone fly nymphs load a fly rod heavily
17:31:36 <CraigC> madison river stone fly hatches are famous
17:32:28 <Lori S> Well, CraigC, was kt you? LOL
17:32:35 <CraigC> kt?
17:32:38 <Lori S> *it
17:32:46 <CraigC> ohhhh hahahahaha
17:33:00 <CraigC> I never went "BOTG", boots on the ground
17:33:01 <KorbenC(phone) > Hey all, just passed muddy gap
17:33:14 <Jeff> nice
17:33:26 <Lori S> KorbenC(phone) spotty se, howdy, where is that?
17:34:12 <Lori S> CraigC, same here...bears and hiking alone = stupid
17:34:18 <KorbenC(phone) > Got 15 minutes before we lose service again:)
17:34:34 <ynpvisitor101> OF 1734 wc
17:34:38 <Lori S> KorbenC(phone) spotty se, I'm headed to Norris at day break tomorrow
17:34:38 <KorbenC(phone) > .
17:34:40 <ynpvisitor76> How many days are you going to be there Korben?
17:35:03 <KorbenC(phone) > Lori S, between Rawlings and lander.
17:35:33 <LindaG> KorbenC(phone) spotty se, happy visit
17:37:39 <Forestbewithyou> we were just talking about who is going to enter the geysers on the webcam when you aren't here
17:38:22 <LindaG> In basin will need to pick up the slack
17:38:41 <Forestbewithyou> yea or we will just have to do better
17:40:02 <LindaG> I've been deferring to actual sightings when they occur, no need to enter from cam if someone is there
17:41:00 <Forestbewithyou> yea I was more saying if they are all at steamboat
17:41:02 <Lori S> steamy bee
17:41:07 <Forestbewithyou> then we would have to do better
17:41:13 <LindaG> We dont really know until after the fact though
17:41:32 <LindaG> Forestbewithyou, ah
17:41:55 <Lori S> Now why would everyone be at Steamboat? :)
17:42:10 <CraigC> to see the hail
17:42:27 <Forestbewithyou> well you see I was trying to figure that out as well Lori
17:42:32 <LindaG> Yeah ynm not working is a pain
17:42:34 <Lori S> or snow..suposed o snow tonight/tomorrow morn
17:42:38 <Forestbewithyou> And I just couldn't figure it out
17:42:39 <Forestbewithyou> lol
17:44:00 <Lori S> Question for the group...did someone really post a link showing Cistern was full well before it was for one of the recent eruptions?
17:44:14 <Lori S> on here
17:44:51 <LindaG> Lori S, it sounds familiar but I dont know
17:44:52 <Jeff> not i
17:45:22 <Lori S> I'm thinking it was in jest but not sure
17:45:51 <KorbenC(phone) > Keep loosing signal
17:45:55 <KorbenC(phone) > Ttyl
17:46:38 <Lori S> cya soon Korben
17:46:56 <Forestbewithyou> bye korben
17:49:54 <LindaG> Aurum at 4hr mark
17:52:01 <Lori S> LindaG, I found it. The Cistern comments
17:52:30 <LindaG> Lori S, was it serious?
17:52:37 <ynpvisitor74> Lori S, when, what?
17:53:10 <Lori S> LindaG, Well, no, just suprising to read
17:53:24 <Forestbewithyou> wdym
17:53:35 <LindaG> Lori S, day? Time?
17:53:36 <ynpvisitor74> in chat or GT?
17:54:01 <Lori S> June 1 16:07
17:54:06 <LindaG> Dinnertime
17:54:16 <LindaG> I'll be back
17:55:07 <Lori S> Bye LindaG
17:55:51 <Lori S> ynpvisitor74, nevermind, no big deal
17:56:07 <Forestbewithyou> I am going to hop off for a bit
17:56:18 <Forestbewithyou> talk to you all in say a hour and a half
17:56:20 <Lori S> Forestbewithyou, bye
17:56:24 <Forestbewithyou> or so
17:56:36 <ynpvisitor74> Well I think I might know what it was, so I'll look
17:58:57 <CraigC> Lori S, I remember that, I never watched it until I saw the link a day or two later on FB
17:59:47 <Lori S> CraigC, I didn't look at the link. Was it in error?
18:00:00 <Lori S> as in fake news on the site?
18:00:27 <CraigC> Lori S, it was one of those USGS educational talks from a ranger
18:00:54 <Lori S> ah, but not a "real time" sort of thing?
18:00:54 <CraigC> I think the video was shot a day or two after an eruption
18:01:43 <CraigC> I wasn't ambitious enough to try and connect the dots
18:02:44 <Lori S> "an" eruption but not a specific mention? oh heck, I'll just go look :)
18:03:07 <ynpvisitor74> I think it hadn't dropped yet Lori S,
18:05:10 <ynpvisitor66> WAsn't it Mike Poland and he was showing the early dropping of Cistern post SB?
18:06:36 <ynpvisitor98> wasn't Cistern full on June 1? since it erupted June 3?
18:07:01 <Lori S> ynpvisitor98, say what?
18:07:33 <ynpvisitor74> we are talking about the May 31 eruption
18:08:31 <Lori S> I have photos taken by...me...that evening. It was on the way back up still inside the inner tube
18:08:41 <ynpvisitor98> oh, I thought you said June 1 chat, sorry
18:09:05 <Lori S> ynpvisitor98, June 1 chat. May 31 major
18:09:31 <ynpvisitor98> :thumbsup:
18:09:32 <ynpvisitor66> Cistern was not reported full until early June2
18:09:45 <Lori S> ynpvisitor66, yes
18:10:10 <ynpvisitor66> just look at GT notes
18:10:36 <Lori S> I didn't ask wondering what state Custern was in...
18:10:40 <ynpvisitor66> was reported 3 ft below of 2020 june 1
18:10:43 <Lori S> Cistern
18:11:16 <CraigC> are you guys doing a Laurel and Hardy skit?
18:11:19 <Lori S> Again, nevermind, no big deal. Just tracking down some facts NOT about Cistern
18:11:35 <Lori S> CraigC, lol
18:11:40 <CraigC> ;)
18:13:04 <ynpvisitor66> were you thinking of this video? https://www.facebook.com/YellowstoneNPS/videos/3857235214348204/
18:16:48 <Lori S> ynpvisitor66, I find that quite illuminating, thx for link. Hadn't seen it
18:17:06 <CraigC> that was the video I watched
18:17:30 <CraigC> Lori S, does the stuff in the video match your pics?
18:17:54 <Lori S> CraigC, well, erm, no comment
18:18:16 <CraigC> why, is there some scandal?
18:19:07 <Lori S> CraigC, lol
18:22:12 <CraigC> daisy
18:31:21 <CraigC> oh brother...... "West Virginia Fire Chief Fired For Wearing 'All Lives Splatter' Shirt Depicting Car Running Over Protesters"
18:31:48 <CraigC> people can be more stupider than I imagine
18:32:41 <CraigC> dinner time..... bbl

19:28:42 <KorbenC (Dubois> Lori S, why

19:37:39 <LindaG> Lori S, 😊
19:39:26 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, was the train ride to YNP?
19:40:45 <ynpvisitor76> No, it was From Chama NM to Antoninto CO. 3 foot gauge steam train.
19:42:26 <ynpvisitor76> Is that a BSB
19:42:43 <ynpvisitor76> Still steam at Aurum too.
19:43:24 <LindaG> Dont see bsb
19:43:45 <LindaG> Aurum is still in the running 😊
19:44:24 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, sorry your train got cancelled, not a good year for travel
19:45:04 <LindaG> I see steam but no splashes
19:45:32 <ynpvisitor101> Did you see Amtrack has been stuck up Spanish Fork Canyon for 18 hours?
19:46:20 <LindaG> What happened to it?
19:46:50 <ynpvisitor101> Electrical problems that they can't figure out
19:47:56 <LindaG> It tortured us the other night too
19:49:04 <LindaG> ynpvisitor101, send Kevin he'll fix it
19:54:04 <Lori S> Time for sleep. 3 am comes early

19:55:15 <Lori S> Aurum/Bee sacrifice quit (timeout) :)
19:55:32 <LindaG> Lori S, thx πŸ™‚
19:55:43 <ynpvisitor76> That is ugly 101. Did it mention of it is motive electricity or onboard power?
19:55:58 <ynpvisitor76> We appreciate it Lori
19:57:03 <ynpvisitor101> Just no power on the tain and they can't fix it. No idea why they haven't sent a bus.
20:01:35 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, anymore hummingbirds?
20:02:48 <ynpvisitor76> I didn't see any today but I spent most of the day in Utah.
20:03:46 <ynpvisitor101> Depression 2003 ie
20:03:48 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, see anything good in utah?
20:04:01 <LindaG> Wowmsuremis
20:04:20 <LindaG> Hmm wow sure is
20:04:39 <LindaG> Nice
20:05:47 <LindaG> Tall
20:06:20 <ynpvisitor101> Always fun to see water
20:06:35 <LindaG> Definitely
20:13:23 <kcmule> OF
20:13:39 <kcmule> last was a short apparently
20:13:44 <ynpvisitor76> Dropping the Granddaughter off.
20:14:04 <ynpvisitor101> Yep
20:14:52 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, ah, that's nice
20:15:58 <ynpvisitor76> She was here for a week tiring us out.
20:16:11 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, 😊
20:16:25 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, how old?
20:16:34 <ynpvisitor76> 7
20:16:52 <LindaG> Better than 2 or 3
20:18:26 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, the little ones will run you ragged
20:18:42 <ynpvisitor76> 2 or 3 don't always want to go to Target or things like that. It was tough explaining that she would not be able to ride the train.
20:19:27 <ynpvisitor76> https://www.flickr.com/photos/158539681@N04/49969384137/in/dateposted-public/
20:20:15 <LindaG> Nice, shame couldnt take train
20:21:40 <ynpvisitor76> That picture is kind of funny. "Let's go out and see a nuclear reactor on the largest train car in the US."
20:22:09 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, and she has her stuffed toy
20:22:34 <ynpvisitor76> Yes she does. Standard equipment.
20:23:26 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, It's not every little kid that gets to see a nuclear reactor
20:24:20 <ynpvisitor76> I have to admit that was a forst for me but I did get to see them explode nuclear weapons when I was in school.
20:25:18 <LindaG> Explode them? Where?
20:25:22 <ynpvisitor101> We've been around a long time.
20:25:36 <LindaG> 😊
20:26:07 <ynpvisitor76> You could watch the flash from the Test Site and watch the mushroom clould go up from the school yard.
20:26:24 <ynpvisitor101> I remember seeing a flash from Milford and not being able to drink milk.
20:26:32 <LindaG> Yikes
20:26:52 <ynpvisitor76> Milford was the bad spot to bee.
20:26:52 <ynpvisitor101> 200 miles away?
20:27:27 <ynpvisitor101> Thorium got the cows in Cache Valley and S Idaho
20:27:50 <LindaG> That's scary
20:28:32 <ynpvisitor76> There is a little picture on this page. I may be one of the kids. http://hendersonhistoricalsociety.org/category/henderson-notable-citizens
20:28:33 <ynpvisitor101> Favorite quote. "Aren't there people there? No one we need to worry avout."
20:29:44 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, wow that's amazing
20:30:17 <ynpvisitor101> Just the 1950s
20:30:39 <ynpvisitor76> It was pretty cool at the time.
20:30:50 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, πŸ˜ƒ
20:31:18 <ynpvisitor66> :daisy:
20:31:49 <ynpvisitor101> I went to bed for years worring about being blown up by an atom bomb. Duck and cover.
20:31:49 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, We were just doing drills and hiding in the basement of the school
20:31:53 <ynpvisitor101> Daisy
20:32:17 <ynpvisitor76> Can you remember Bert the Turtle?
20:32:31 <ynpvisitor101> Yes
20:32:43 <LindaG> No
20:33:03 <LindaG> Maybe if I saw it i would remember
20:33:16 <ynpvisitor76> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKqXu-5jw60
20:33:56 <ynpvisitor101> I had a pound of Yellowcake in a pint jar in my bedroom
20:34:39 <ynpvisitor101> One of the mills down by Mexican Hat
20:35:13 <ynpvisitor76> That is scary. We did have mercury all the time though that we would play with. Also had lawn darts.
20:35:15 <ynpvisitor101> Riverside
20:35:48 <LindaG> ynpvisitor76, doesn't look familiar
20:36:30 <LindaG> ynpvisitor101, what is yellowcake?
20:36:57 <ynpvisitor76> We also survived these: https://www.moms.com/20-vintage-pics-of-car-seats-from-the-past/
20:37:07 <ynpvisitor101> Uranium - partially refined.
20:37:16 <LindaG> ynpvisitor101, oh dear
20:37:45 <ynpvisitor101> No idea it was dangerous
