After last night, it was welcome to wake up to clear skies and no wind, although there was heavy frost on all the vehicles in the cabin area. Once again, Sawmill started during the walk from Castle. Spasmodic was high, and starting to overflow. Belgian Pool was full clear to the rim.
West Triplet also showed evidence that it had overflowed a bit, but was now well below that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The wait for Grand started out well enough, but just after the six hour mark of the interval we had a heavy fill, strong Turban eruption with Vent overflowing during that time. This meant we were going to have another long wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the sixth Turban eruption later came the announcement of water in Beehive's Indicator followed by the start. Of course Grand erupted on with the next opportunity. This One Burst Eruption lasted less than ten minutes but Vent & Turban still quit afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's hot and overflowing, but needs something more for there to be some activity. As I came back past Grand I noted that West Triplet was in a steady overflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Sawmill eruption I saw start lasted well over four hours. An hour or so after it finally quit I went back out to see if Uncertain might erupt. It was also well inside the Castle eruption window. It wasn't long before Castle started, and the eruption lasted 2m52s. It slopped for a while, but after that was much quieter than many post-minor periods I've seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Uncertain didn't seem to do much until shortly after the Castle eruption when Sawmill suddenly had a 50s long eruption. It was still quiet for the better part of half an hour before it started to have periods of overflow. A couple more of these, and it started erupting. That eruption was followed about a minute later by the start of Sawmill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As we were leaving I noticed that Oblong was putting up a lot of steam. A change of position confirmed that it was in eruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next Grand eruption followed much of the pattern of the previous eruptions-- a long wait before the One Burst Grand. Waited exactly two hours as the Turban intervals and durations got shorter. After a Turban interval that was less than 16 minutes, we got a longer one, and during that extra time Grand finally started looking full with waves. The One Burst Eruption lasted almost 10-1\/2 minutes, and despite being longer than the Grand eruption earlier in the day, Vent & Turban continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
