In Yellowstone, a spring which is observed to erupt for an extended period of time is not considered to be a geyser, but instead is called a Òperpetual spouterÓ. At Steamboat Springs, it was not unusual to find a spring that had been splashing a few inches high for over a year to suddenly quit. In the case of #39, eruptive activity as much as 4 meters high was observed over a period of four months. In all cases the activity was eventually observed to cease. Therefore for the purposes of this report these springs are considered geysers.
