Out to Grand on a foggy, damp morning. Only waited one Turban eruption interval, which turned into a Turban Delay eruption interval of 33-1\/2 minutes. Because of the fog, it was hard to tell what the pool was doing after Turban started erupting. But a minute in, Turban was still powerful and vigorous, and the steam over Grand's pool seemed to have increased. So I wasn't surprised when after 1-1\/2 minutes of Turban erupting, Grand started also. This was another long One Burst Grand eruption lasting almost 11-1\/2 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vents were splashing around, but I don't know enough about it to know if we were close to an eruption. In any case, about a half hour later we got the call for Beehive's Indicator. I arrived at the benches just in time for Beehive to have a huge surge and being erupting. After the Beehive eruption, Lion had the second eruption of its series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The midday Grand eruption was similar to this mornings, where once again Grand erupted after over 31 minutes of a Turban Delay interval. This time Grand started the eruption with an explosive burst as high as the trees, as seen from the benches. And once again, it was a long One Burst Eruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ended up seeing another Turban Delay interval, this time at the 5-1\/2 hour mark. But the One Burst Grand occurred only three Turban eruption intervals later, so the Grand interval was just over 6-1\/2 hours. By then it was dark. Only four geyser gazers were there for the start, but the quarter moon gave plenty of light so no flashlights were used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The minor eruption was over by the time I was packed up and walked over there. Not unexpected, as there have been several major Castle eruptions in a row.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
