35652 30 Jun 2024 @ 1102 --- Janet Jones Standing water in the overflow channels that could only have water in them from an eruption. Still active.
35526 24 Jun 2024 @ 1730 24 Jun 2024 @ 2035 Craigmon99 Walked up to heavy overflow and eruptive vent boiling. 1739 boiling ceased. Still in heavy overflow 1740 boiling over eruptive vent back on and strong. 1742 bowling ball diameter boil 1746 boil has weakened but pool level still looks good. Heavy overflow continues 1748 eruptive vent ceased. Central vent gently boiling. Heavy overflow continues 1752 eruptive vent boiling begins again. Overflow unchanged 1755 eruptive vent bowling ball sized and strong 1759 EV boil weakened substantially. Pool remains at good overflow. 1800 boil gone. Extremely windy out. Maybe effecting? Cannot say though 1803 EV on 1806 bowling ball sized heavy boil from EV 1810 EV boiling decrease drastically since heavy wind. Pool level still does increase with each push however. 1814 EV back on after blooping from central vent 1821 EV boil off. CV beginning gentle boil. For context, helicopter strong winds are in basin. One of the main directions however, is directly against the flooding action that starts at the beginning of an eruption. 1829 EV boil begins. Wind is lighter. 1831 Subaudible thumping sounds from Collapsing Pool 1835 EV Fail. Runoff remains heavy from main channel 1841 EV on. 1853 ev still on. Strong. Good push. Signs look good 1856 ev off. Spoke too soon! 1902 ev on 1912 ev off 1919 ev on 1925 ev off 1932 ev on 1930 ev off 1944 ev on 2021 ev still on variable. No eruption yet 2034 ev still on from last note. Heading out due to bugs and general hunger. Of note: Collapsing Pool’s overflow channel has water almost to boardwalk now.
35515 24 Jun 2024 @ 0917 --- Craigmon99 Pooling raising after last eruption. No overflow yet. Pool is pulsing upwards 0923 boiling has calmed, but pool continues to rise 0925: almost at overflow. Rolling boil in center occasionally 0927: overflow begins into main channel. Heavy push this time. No hesitance. 0929: heavy large splashy boil. Thought this was going to start eruption. Pool level dropped below overflow. 0931: pool continues bowling ball diameter boil. Still below overflow 0935: boil is still strong as if preeruptive but still below overflow 0940: boil weakening substantially over eruptive vent. Boil over central vent beginning and intermittent. 0956: in overflow. Light overflow 1000: medium overflow 1005: medium heavy overflow 1007: heavy overflow (both sides of far rock have flow) Occasional rolling boil from center continues. Nothing from eruptive vent since last mention 1010: convection from eruptive vent 1024: central vent more rolling boils. Eruptive vent a few bubbles seen but convection mostly 1029: central vent upwelling and rolling boil stronger 1034: eruptive vent boiling strong 1036: bowling ball size boil over eruptive vent
35490 23 Jun 2024 @ 1043 --- Janet Jones Ledge still below overflow. I left to document the lower section of the basin.
35489 23 Jun 2024 @ 1029 --- Janet Jones Ledge was below overflow, however water stood in many places in the wide area where water overflows when an eruption occurs - indicating it's possibly active. I went to finish photo documentation of the upper half with a plan to check back before documenting the lower half.
34761 30 May 2024 @ 0909 --- Graham In steady overflow and hot. No indication of eruption recently, washbarea is dry and lots of small decayed sinter.
34501 10 May 2024 @ 1305 --- Janet Jones Steady overflow with microbes growing in the overflow channel. Blue, clear water and bubbles rising steadily. Was there for five minutes with no change in behavior.
26928 08 Jul 2023 @ 1556 --- nails Many feet below overflow. Water is brown with some green color. Occasional bubbles.
24243 05 Oct 2022 @ 1317 --- WillBoekel not active has green bacteria growing around edge
23357 23 Aug 2022 @ 0830 --- Craigmon99 Bench in between collapsing spring and ledge spring wet. Rest of boardwalk dry
16104 13 Sep 2020 @ 1205 --- Graham Very low water level. inactive
13721 16 Sep 2019 @ 1009 --- Janet Jones Rangers at West Thumb reported that Ledge's water level started to drop last week and is now down further. When I arrived there today, it was still a clear hot blue color with bubbles rising, but the water level was about half full - a level it has been at often in the past. I did not stay to observe whether or not it might still be erupting from a lower pool. Percolating Spring was still overflowing and percolating away. Thermal features across the boardwalk (Thumb Geyser, "Waterfall," etc) had fewer microbes and slightly elevated water levels as compared to my last visit.
13599 06 Sep 2019 @ 1320 06 Sep 2019 @ 1520 Graham In overflow with very small rise and fall in the pool level. No eruption.
12531 19 Jul 2019 @ 1837 --- User34 First overflow
11475 01 Jun 2019 @ 1320 01 Jun 2019 @ 1530 Graham Starting overflow with periodic boiling about every 10 min. Still in overflow with slightly stronger boils at 1530.
11201 10 May 2019 @ 1237 --- Janet Jones It’s alive! Hot, full, boiling, and overflow channel is damp.
10915 26 Jan 2019 @ 0945 26 Jan 2019 @ 1105 Graham Runoff area is washed. Pool rose from below overflow to overflow and boiling over the vent started after 1040. Could erupt any time.
4537 25 Jul 2017 @ 1844 --- JSJ Damp runoff areas. Didn't stay to watch for eruptions (boardwalk closed for construction).
4123 23 May 2017 @ 0842 --- Janet Jones Hot, full, boiling and the runoff channel is wet. Runoff channel carved all the way to the lower boardwalk.
4101 19 May 2017 @ 1805 --- Tara Looked post eruptive.
