Observations for 2025 June 10


Expected a Rift eruption overnight, did not expect to wake up at dawn and find that Grand had yet to erupt. It was around the nine hour mark, so I decided I could run out without much of a wait. Instead, the One Burst Grand Eruption started a few minutes later, so I need not head out.

A bit later I walked over to Geyser Hill and from there to check and confirm that Rift did erupt. Then back to Geyser Hill to wait a hour for Beehive. The winds, which had been mostly calm, picked up during the Indicator eruption, heading directly for the walkway. At first when Beehive started I retreated toward Scissors Spring, then decided it was better to run through the downpour and get behind the water column. I still ended up getting pretty wet, and it was a cool cloudy day.

Afterwards spent some time at Aurum, as it also was having what appeared to be a long interval. With multiple bison on Geyser Hill, I decided I'd rather not get trapped over there and went back to the cabin. (It was around this time that someone got knocked down by a bison over by the Inn. Later in the day it sounded like this bison charged a second touron.)

At Grand, we got a 35 minute Turban eruption interval. During this time the sky cleared and it started to feel much warmer. After that Delay, there followed three intervals later a second Delay Turban interval. At least this time Grand had the One Burst Eruption with the second Delay.

During the afternoon it got cloudy and windy, but no rain. By the time of the evening Grand eruption the sky was clearing and the sun visible between the clouds.

During the afternoon it got cloudy and windy, but no rain. For a while it looked like it might clear up a bit, but by the time of the evening Grand eruption the sky was overcast and it was windy (the latter kept the mosquitos away).

The three Turban eruptions prior to the One Burst Grand eruption had durations of either 4m18s or 4m17s, but the intervals kept getting longer. The West Triplet started to erupt. The eruption started with an explosion on a Turban Delay interval under 26 minutes long. Vent & Turban looked like they might quit but after about 1m20s Turban's activity picked up. West Triplet stopped erupting at some point late in the Grand eruption.
