Went out to Grand before midnight, and caught what was probably another Turban Delay Interval. That eruption of Turban lasted almost six minutes, while the next Turban eruption had no overflow from Grand. So the One Burst Eruption most likely occurred on the fourth Turban Interval after the Eruption Delay (D4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less of a wait for the Grand eruption at dawn. Arrived in time to experience another Turban Delay Interval, but fortunately, the One Burst Grand was the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tried to visit the Lower Basin, but arrived at a nearly full Paint Pots parking lot at 09:00 to see Fountain in eruption. It was over by the time we walked out there. Based on an observation of Great Fountain the previous evening, we also decided to try biking out to it on another time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mid-day Grand turned into the afternoon Grand when another Turban Interval Delay took eight more Turban eruptions to recover. This eruption of Grand started with about 16 seconds of boops, including one shot up to 8 meters high, angled to the south. The start of the eruption itself was unimpressive, but fortunately, we got a second burst that was much higher. The second burst ended with a total eruption duration less than ten minutes, so it was disappointing when Grand's pool immediately drained with no attempt to refill.<\/p>\n\n\n

There is at least one raven which has learned to clean up after the crowd at Grand disperses. Sometimes there's been a companion, but it usually starts at the northern runoff and works its way down the benches. So far it's kept its distance from people but I expect them to start checking bags and packs at some point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If Grand had erupted on the next Turban eruption instead of the one in which it did, this would not have been a four Grand day. Instead the One Burst Grand eruption came five minutes before midnight. There wasn't any Turban Delay Interval, just a series of Turban eruptions where the duration and the intervals were getting shorter. At around the eight minute mark in the eruption, there was a false pause, and then Grand continued for almost another three minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
