| Comments: | Forced steam started 0614, water joined in at 0616; height of column equal to dead tree on north; based on prior observations of Lone Pine minors this was probably the first minor after the major.
Forced steam started 0614, ended 0636.
Water started 0616, ended 0635.
The eruption started from an empty crater and was preceded by about 2minutes of audible forced steam. For these reasons, I coded the eruption as a minor event though the duration and height were equal to some major eruptions (those starting from a full pool) I have seen. |
