A dull way to start another visit.
Started out with a One Burst Grand eruption. The weather kept changing from sort of warm and sunny to breezy and cool and overcast. At one point there was a full 22 degree parhelic arc circling the sun. It looks like Grand itself may have returned to the mode where Sput D is frequently active and West Triplet quiet. Did see one strong eruption of of the sput just before Grand erupted, and evidence of West Triplet overflowing without erupting during the Grand eruption. The eruption itself was on a delay, and the preceeding Turban interval was well over 22 minutes.
From there it was over to Grotto, where Spa was full and starting to boil. But got interrupted by Beehive's Indicator as we walked up on Crested Pool. Surprised there was no one over there waiting for it, so had to give out a radio call. The eruption itself was the first one I'd seen this year from the overlook across the river.
And so then finally made it to Spa. Over the next hour or so there were numerous bursts, some as high as 10 meters and lasting 10 seconds or so.
Finally, since the reports from Fountain were sparse, went out to see what would happen next. It turned out the interval was well over eight hours, but the duration was well under 32 minutes. While waiting for an hour for Fountain, did see lots of other activity, including Jet, Super Frying Pan, Twig, Kaleidoscope and some pool out there that had at least 6 vents erupting up to a couple of meters high.
