07:55:01

07:55:40
<Linda> KorbenC, hi
07:55:46
<Kat 😎> Eric, yes on GT page it's on the streaming
07:55:55
<Eric> Hi Korben
07:56:13
<Kat 😎> I sent you and support another message
07:56:27
<Kat 😎> Hey Korben
07:56:37
<Linda> Eric, hi
07:56:54
<Eric> looking now...I had 119 degree weather yesterday...I just put ice on my head and didn't do much :-P
07:57:13
<Kat 😎> Thats what I would do - just sent it this AM
07:58:07
<Eric> Just to confirm you are talking about the page: https://chat.geysertimes.org/?
07:58:18
<Kat> Yes
07:58:45
<KorbenC> Eric, is one of those pages better?
07:59:01
<Dave from B™> Erioc, c'mon, man. You should be mountain climbing in that weather!
07:59:13
<Eric> Hi Dave :-P
07:59:15
<Kat> I get the error and then reload - have to reload without the error too
07:59:22
<Eric> I could cook some of your fish on the sidewalk!
07:59:24
<KorbenC> Hi Dave
07:59:26
<Dave from B™> For maximum calorie burn
07:59:34
<Dave from B™> Hi Korben
07:59:54
<KorbenC> It was nice to finally meet you this past week.
08:00:16
<Dave from B™> Always nice to mess a major geyser event when I'm in the basin
08:00:20
<Dave from B™> miss*
08:00:34
<Eric> Can you just reload the stream Kat? Hit the little circle icon next to the word "Streaming" in the settings box on the right?
08:00:40
<KorbenC> :p
08:01:09
<Eric> My guess is your network is breaking the stream.
08:01:26
<Eric> If you are on a laptop, move closer to your wifi router and see if that helps.
08:01:51
<Eric> Did you have a good trip Dave?
08:02:01
<Kat> I reload all the time - not on laptop
08:04:57
<Dave from B™> Eric, I did. Not a lot of gazing but enough to satisfy the craving. Had fun biking to Lone Star.
08:07:51
<Eric> Nice! Lots of bugs out there?
08:08:01
<Dave from B™> For those visiting the park this summer, do not leave OF for West Yellowstone between 4 and 7 pm. Traffic is really bad at that time
08:08:12
<Dave from B™> Very few bugs
08:08:30
<KorbenC> Dave from B™, just don't leave the UGB for anywhere north in that time, lol
08:08:50
<Eric> That's good, thought you might still have that spring bug cloud.
08:09:35
<Eric> Kat, I might suggest you try Firefox and see how that does. I don't have a clear answer to your issue right now.
08:12:34
<Kat> OF
08:14:10
<Kat> Eric, Thanks
08:28:44
<Dave from B™> None of the traffic issues I encountered involved wildlife....just congestion
08:29:03
<Dave from B™> We did ride Teddy in Canyon. That was fun
08:30:08
<Dave from B™> I'm more convinced than ever that shuttles are the solution in YNP...especially from West to OF
08:30:42
<Dave from B™> If that doesn't happen, expect a ticketed entry sysytem to start next year or the following
08:32:39
<KorbenC> yup, which will make everything a pain for people staying in west I bet
08:38:30

<Kat> OF
09:58:19
<Joe> Yes good cam work :)
09:58:49
<Kat> Hahaha
09:58:53
<Joe> I added the video to Adam's post
09:59:41
<Kat> Anyone seen Kevin?
09:59:53
<Kevin L™ 🌵> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

10:00:08
<Joe> Yes
10:00:24
<Kat> Hahahaha I hear the music :)
10:00:25
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I hear Perry Mason music
10:00:48
<Kat> Morning Kevin! Have a good one
10:01:02
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Thanks, you too.
11:51:38
<ynpvisitor9> daisy
11:55:35
<JarnoO> I don't have to say much about England versus Germany, but 🎵 football's coming home 🎵 :)
11:56:31
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Good eye. With the lousy view on the controls I didn't see it until the end
11:57:08
<ynpvisitor9> eagle eye
12:05:31
<Dave from B™> We are getting LED lights in offices and warehouse today:)
12:06:41
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Be interesting to see what that does to your power bills. I know it was stunning for traffic signals.
12:08:09
<Dave from B™> 4,000 rebate helps, too
12:08:58
<Dave from B™> It will pay for itself in 3 years
12:18:29
<JarnoO> FYI: the Steamboat logger probe got dug up, hence the high temperatures recorded now
13:02:12
<AA> OF is done
13:16:35
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Finally. I hate this cam.
13:17:53
<AA> It is difficult to say the least. :(
13:18:38
<AA> comma after difficult
13:19:04
<AA> Looks like sawmill
13:19:18
<AA> Yes sawmill
13:19:19
<Kevin L™ 🌵> It does have attitude problems.
13:21:07
<AA> Nice sawmill can we zoom?
13:22:24
<AA> too bad no one is down basin
13:24:57
<Dave from B™> For this close to July 4, there are VERY few gazers around.
13:26:10
<AA> sawmill done at 1324 video soon
13:39:17
<AA> Sawmill Video https://youtu.be/RlJjBN-y8uQ

<AA> attached video to sawmill post
13:55:00
<Oblong?> is Oblong erupting? So hard to tell anything with this cam
13:56:04
<Oblong?> what a mess this cam is
13:58:27
<Oblong?> looks like Bulger
14:00:01
<Oblong?> if you back out is there better focus?
14:00:39
<Oblong?> watching white blobs it's hard to tell if water is involved in the steam
14:00:45
<AA> overall this camera 'SUCKS'
14:01:18
<Oblong?> hard to believe the NPS would allow it to stay
14:02:00
<AA> I think NPS does not care.
14:02:09
<Oblong?> that is very unfortunate
14:03:02
<AA> If they did thwy would have done something about it long ago
14:03:23
<AA> thwy= they
14:03:23
<Oblong?> this has been going on awhile now.
14:04:00
<Oblong?> Bulger must be a major
14:06:34
<AA> Bulger 1357 major if you want to post it
14:06:56
<AA> Tardy

<JarnoO> Churn
15:24:43
<lori lurking Je> good afternoon all!
15:25:04
<JarnoO> afternoon LLJM
15:25:12
<Kevin L™> Hey Lori lurking.
15:25:37
<lori lurking Je> Finishing unpacking from our trip. We had a tough time with our walkie talkies this time. I am thinking we need to upgrade. What do I need to get?
15:26:47
<Kevin L™> I am not sure. They have some new models. I dropped one and broke the antenna so I am shopping myself.
15:28:05
<lori lurking Je> I know nothing- we had the old ones for a long time, but we missed calls and cut out a lot, so I think they are done.
15:28:17
<Kevin L™> I can keep you posted on what I find. I may go for some of the GMRS units for other trips like Rainbow Canyon.
15:28:50
<Kevin L™> I always use the Motorola brand.
15:28:58
<lori lurking Je> Thanks, Kevin. It's one of those things, once or twice a year, but we want it to work well when we are out there.
15:30:05
<Kevin L™> I just sent Jenna a link to a cool Burlington book the other day.
15:31:48
<Kevin L™> BTW the Big Boy will be doing a run through Missouri in August. That would be a great day with Grandkids.
15:45:59
<lori lurking Je> sorry- started supper ;) When in August, Kevin?
15:47:50
<Kevin L™> They haven't posted the exact details yet, but I will keep you posted.
15:48:24
<Kevin L™> I will be going to Colorado to ride 3 different trains in September.
15:48:36
<KorbenC> one of those the cog?
15:49:18
<Kevin L™> Probably so.
15:55:15
<Kevin L™> Not sure of the dates yet Korben. Going with my brother who still works for a living.
15:57:10
<lori lurking Je> nice trip Kevin.
15:57:22
<KorbenC> Kevin L™, :p
15:58:21
<JarnoO> good Churn series
15:58:34
<JarnoO> short intervals and I think decent durations
15:59:33
<Kevin L™> Controls released.
15:59:44
<Greg 🤠> Thanks for driving Kevin
16:00:22
<Kevin L™> Good luck with it Greg. It probably kicked me off 20 times.
16:00:51
<Greg 🤠> Nice, I am still trying to log on
16:01:36
<Kevin L™> It took me about 20 minutes once to get back.
16:02:56
<Greg 🤠> Any times for Lion, Bee, Aurum?
16:08:58
<Kevin L™> Bee was early in the morning. No lion. Aurum? Ha ha.
16:12:15
<Greg 🤠> This is going to be fun -- not!
16:12:49
<Kevin L™> :p
16:14:07
<Kevin L™> Maybe it is trying to point at Great Fountain.
16:14:24
<Greg 🤠> Good point,
17:24:27

<Kevin L™> Nasty flood in Zion. Looks like it affected my house. https://www.abc4.com/news/local-news/flash-flood-erupts-in-springdale-warnings-issued-for-zion-national-park-and-nearby-areas/
17:58:54

18:00:10
<Greg 🤠> holy moly
18:00:38
<Kevin L™> The entrance is a half mile from my house.
18:02:33
<Greg 🤠> I have been on that road a few times - towards 89?
18:05:08
<Greg 🤠> Hope your home is ok.
18:17:02
<Kevin L™> Looking like minor damage is all. My Son is in Denver so a neighbor is doing a cleanup for us.
18:17:12
<Kevin L™> Sawmill!
18:18:05
<Greg 🤠> Great news. YEA on Sawmill
18:32:29
<Greg 🤠> It has been an hour since the cam last went down yea
18:33:45
<lori lurking Je> Kevin, my brother-in-law posted on facebook he is spending the morning of the 4th here. https://pueblorailway.org/?fbclid=IwAR1g6_yB38Bu3MeFsbuvLKF1u69eMBMLAxOZRweSkCIlbWLnoqCRjIytQK0
18:34:21
<lori lurking Je> Oh, I just read back- what a mess Kevin! Flooding is no joke!
18:36:11
<Linda> Kevin L™, Oh sorry to hear about flood
18:37:27
<Kevin L™> Looks like there are people leaving now but they closed about 5 miles of the road into the park.
18:43:09
<Linda> Wow
18:55:58

19:11:45
<Greg 🤠> Its moving all by itself
19:43:38
<Greg 🤠> Big crowd tonight.
19:59:52
<Forestbewithyou> Evening all
20:00:00
<KorbenC> Hi Forest
20:00:02
<Greg 🤠> Hi Forest
20:00:06
<Forestbewithyou> Hey Korben
20:00:15
<Forestbewithyou> Hey Greg
20:00:34
<Greg 🤠> Welcome to the circle
20:01:00
<Forestbewithyou> Thank you! I love the circle that takes 50 years off my life expectancy
20:01:22
<Greg 🤠> :thumbsup:
20:01:30
<KorbenC> Wow, 6ft Percolator, wow!
20:01:38
<Forestbewithyou> Wow
20:02:48
<Forestbewithyou> So how long has the cam been down?
20:03:12
<KorbenC> Been on and off for what, 3 years now?
20:03:14
<Greg 🤠> Since 1612 it has been down 12 time
20:03:46
<Forestbewithyou> Ah ok
20:04:47
<Greg 🤠> And the cam moved by itself
20:04:52
<KorbenC> lets play: "Where is the cam zoomed too this time" :P
20:05:03
<Greg 🤠> I know
20:05:31
<Forestbewithyou> I am going to guess it is inside a car
20:05:45
<Greg 🤠> That cloud is pretty
20:05:50
<Forestbewithyou> Yea
20:05:52
<KorbenC> This is kind of entertaining, lol
20:05:56
<Greg 🤠> The Martians are coming
20:05:58
<KorbenC> Its a cloud and OF at the same time
20:05:58
<Kevin L™> It is ash! Yellowstone has exploded!
20:06:07
<Forestbewithyou> Oh boy
20:06:38
<Forestbewithyou> KorbenC, It is entertaining isn’t it
20:09:19
<Kevin L™> Did you see the Springdale flood Korben?
20:09:47
<KorbenC> You taking about the ones today?
20:09:57
<Kevin L™> yes
20:10:22
<KorbenC> Yup. That area is having some problems. So hot, but when it rains all the water just runs away
20:11:07
<Kevin L™> Yep. Got a ton of mud in the front yard and minor damage in the house.
20:11:21
<KorbenC> :(
20:22:41
<Greg 🤠> Color is great
20:39:44
<Greg 🤠> of
20:52:48
<KorbenC> Greg, are you driving?
20:53:00
<Greg 🤠> Kinda
20:53:04
<KorbenC> :P
20:53:33
<Kevin L™> It is more like WWF than driving.
20:53:33
<KorbenC> Keep an eye on Sawmill, Spasmodic was 2035 so it could be anytime (or not) but it has been going around 3omin to an hour after Spasmodic starts
20:55:05
<Greg 🤠> Caught sawmill earlier
20:56:45
<KorbenC> :)
20:57:08
<KorbenC> Crazy how a week ago it still was cold and had orange bacteria in its vent
20:58:03
<KorbenC> I think a week ago Forest joked about how awesome it would be if Sawmill came back when we were there, and I remember just laughing. :P
20:59:07
<Kevin L™> That is what makes Yellowstone so fun. Every time you come back it is different.
20:59:25
<KorbenC> But it also has new ways to torture you.
21:00:08
<Kevin L™> It sure does
21:00:08
<Greg 🤠> :thumbsup:
21:01:30
<KorbenC> I mean, it splashed on a few cycles before it erupted and then it went overnight, Ben and the other ones of us heading out there for the night shift missed it by 15 minutes.
21:02:01
<Greg 🤠> 361 days
21:02:15
<Kevin L™> Looks like two way traffic at the south gate at Zion
21:02:15
<KorbenC> until?
21:02:38
<Greg 🤠> We arrive in Jackson on the way to YNP
21:02:55
<KorbenC> when do you get into YNP?
21:03:42
<Greg 🤠> 10th
21:04:07
<KorbenC> *confused*
21:04:18
<KorbenC> 10th of June 2022?
21:04:36
<Greg 🤠> June 10th we arrive at Lake Lodge
21:05:07
<KorbenC> Of course we will have to meet up in the UGB.
21:06:04
<Greg 🤠> Sat we are in Rosey doing the cookout, we are having 2 newbies with us
21:06:32
<KorbenC> I leave on the 11th in the afternoon I think
21:06:50
<KorbenC> So we will have a day or two for our schedules to collide :)
21:08:39
<KorbenC> anyways, I should probably get some sleep before my brain turns into jello. Night all!
21:10:09
<Kevin L™> Night
21:10:24
<Greg 🤠> Night Korben
21:15:51
<Greg 🤠> sawmill
21:16:47
<Greg 🤠> Grand is due soon, so will leave the cam here. Have a great evening.
21:17:03
<Greg 🤠> Controls have bee released, keep smiling.
