Observations for 2022 August 28


A cool and smoky day, but not unpleasant like yesterday.

Unlike last night, there wasn't much of a wait, and when Grand did erupt, we got the first two burst eruption in almost a week. The second burst was not quite long enough to qualify for a "Long Second" burst.

In the late afternoon I arrived to what seemed like a Turban Delay Interval. The duration of the eruption and the lack of Grand overflow on the next Turban eruption tends to confirm that. Only had to wait for two Turban eruption intervals before we got the One Burst Grand eruption. Was only in the area for about an hour, but did not see any activity in Sput D during that time. In the morning it was as active as it had been before yesterday's Rift eruption.

Also stopped in to see a Daisy eruption, which seemed totally ordinary.

Later in the evening the local bison paid a visit to the Lodge cabin area. It stopped across from our cabin to grab some grass before heading off into the trees.
