| Comments: | Art & I were right about to head in. At 2100 we had a minor with long sustained vertical South solo. Not particularly large or insane runoff, but enough to where we decided to give it 5 more minutes. After a brief pause, NV began building up a nice looking minor when suddenly it had a large vertical surge and took off right away! Wind the default daytime direction so it was very visible lit up with our flashlights. Height measurement of 312' and it held it there for almost a minute, didn't seem to drop very far after. INSANELY loud and violent water phase despite the shorter height. Went into burst mode at 2117 and held that for the remainder. Fairly clear water still. SPECTACULAR conditions for a nighttime eruption with no moon and very clear starry night sky. |
