19326 06 Sep 2021 @ 0752 --- Suzanne Boiling from the north side and cycling every 20 minutes. At the peak height water flows into the far left (south) runoff channel and the alcove vent on the north side splashes a few inches above the rim, enough to form puddles on the north side of the crater. The previous peak was at 0751.
19321 05 Sep 2021 @ 1825 --- Graham Observed 3 cycles of 20min with North vent boils. Similar reports all day from other observers.

Right side boil, then left joined in and it erupted!

19237 01 Sep 2021 @ 1405 01 Sep 2021 @ 1720 Graham 20min cycles from below overflow to peak water. Vent on River side active, holding thick boil at rim height at peak and splashes 1 foot over rim. Cycles very regular in fill rate and boiling. Similar to what Micah reported on 5 Aug.
19169 30 Aug 2021 @ 2000 --- Dan A 1955 big surging on south side of pool that built into bursting from the center pool around 8’. Water was also bursting from one of the holes
19163 30 Aug 2021 @ 1202 30 Aug 2021 @ 1445 Tara I suspect a major eruption has occurred recently, grass is matted on the SSE side, water is slightly murky. Minor activity has changed drastically from 1 week ago, when I saw only moderate overflow and weak 6-18" cyclical boiling on the north (river) side. Today I arrived to find heavy overflow and boiling to 1-3' on the south (bank) side. At 1204 his built to surging to 3-5', followed by churning bursts from the center of the pool reaching 4-8' for about a minute, with overflow spilling over all sides. At 1206 the water level began to drop and the surging subsided. As the water fell to its lowest point 1.5' below the bathtub mark, the side vent to the south began to gurgle and then splash weakly to 1-3' for about a minute. Boiling and bursting continued on the south side from a low water level reaching 1-3' but becoming weaker as the water level rose. 1217 the pool reached overflow again. 1218 variable boiling resumed on south side, highest water level 2" below bathtub mark, 1220 water level drop to 6-8" below mark. 1227 water had risen to 2-3" below mark, pool mostly calm with some light boiling, still holding at 1235. 1240 water level 2" below mark, increasing boiling on south side. 1252 water level rose to bathtub mark, heavier overflow, boiling 1-3' on south side. 1254 boiling extending into center of pool. 1255 water level dropped slightly and bursting began that built to churning at 1256. Action similar to previous minor but weaker, max height 4-5' and d~1m. Side vent gurgling after but only a few.drops of water seen. 1257 water level drop to about 1' below mark. 1306 water level back up to mark, boiling extending frol south side into center of pool. Side vent stopped gurgling at this time. 1307 bursting and churning d~1m h~4-6', 1309 water level drop & side vent gurgling with spits 1-3', more bursting briefly at 1310. 1315 water level holding 8" below mark, side vent continues to gurgle. Cycles continued to stabilize at about 20 minutes, with peak boiling reaching ~4' occurring as the pool dropped.
19136 28 Aug 2021 @ 1918 --- User34 Overflowing and boiling vigorously from the righthand side
18842 05 Aug 2021 @ 1407 05 Aug 2021 @ 1503 Micah Kipple East Sentinel is cycling it's water level up and down approximately every 20 minutes (first ovf to first ovf). Upon reaching overflow, superheated boiling 3-12" high commences on the North (River side) of the crater. This waxes and wanes until about 10 minutes after first overflow, when the entire pool suddenly lifts ~3" and the superheated boiling surges to 2', sending runoff trickling down the backside into the river. When the pool drops about 15 minutes after first overflow, there is some small lazy bursting from a single vent on the south (Bank) side of the pool to about 12". Then the water starts coming up and the cycle repeats.
18803 02 Aug 2021 @ 0945 --- hkoenig Appears to have had major eruption in last couple of days. Some catch basins full. Dead grasses pointing upriver and dead plants as much as 10m from the vent in southern alcove. Flow marks still visible at spots. 25cm high boiling along downstream rim. Based on Tara Cross' comment, added an eruption entry for ~2021 Aug 01 01:00
12400 07 Jul 2019 @ 1152 --- User34 Flat, river flowing well through near channel.

3519 21 Aug 2016 @ 1030 21 Aug 2016 @ 1055 mhreed Energetic boiling/splashing from left two vents. Splashing on push reached 3 ft. with highest droplets to 5 ft. and agitated the entire pool.
3197 03 Jul 2016 @ 1332 03 Jul 2016 @ 1530 JSJ East Sentinel Geyser was in minor eruption from 1332 to 1530 from the side vent. Activity ranged from moderately weak to moderately vigorous splashing. Pool water level varied, with episodes of good overflow to intermittent overflow to no overflow. Brief pauses in eruptive activity at 1401 and 1455 and 1514. Moderately vigorous splashing at 1437 to 1438 wet part of the cone. No major eruptions observed, angled or vertical.
