34123 17 Mar 2024 @ 1410 17 Mar 2024 @ 1500 Mkeller Mostly weak and wispy North vent play with a couple of ok pushes from South with so-so overflow.
34078 01 Mar 2024 @ 0900 --- JR Quietly steaming. No signs of recent eruption.
34087 29 Feb 2024 @ 1852 --- steve It appeared from the seismograph YNM that Steamboat was erupting. No other seismograph showed an eruption and observation the next day showed it had not erupted. It appears the seismograph was giving false readings.
34054 20 Feb 2024 @ 1130 20 Feb 2024 @ 1230 aferrara many tall, energetic, minor eruptions. several with concerted vertical play. runoff frequent, with loud babbling brooks several times in the hour. overall minor eruptions are frequent and tall. Three times in this window, but especially at 1141, I thought I was about to see the major eruption. oh well.
34041 17 Feb 2024 @ 1135 --- JR Observed for about 25 minutes. Some nice minors overall: play from both vents, audible runoff, some booming heights out of NV of about 40', maybe 50' from a few over the observed time. Had good activity for about 15 seconds or so from one minor.
34029 13 Feb 2024 @ 1530 --- JR Observed for about 20 minutes. Some decent minors a few minutes apart. 30+ feet from nv, and play from both vents. No audible run off at any point.
33933 26 Jan 2024 @ 1405 --- JR Quiet..... very little run off, temp logger is low again....
33909 24 Jan 2024 @ 1320 --- JR Good minors, nothing too impressive but lots of gurgling, slight runoff. Temps are back up on logger.
33904 20 Jan 2024 @ 1445 --- JR Decent pumps of water out of both vents. Audible run-off. First observed (and obvious) increase in activity since post-eruption quiet period.
33819 16 Jan 2024 @ 1115 --- JR Huffing steam mostly. Small burst of water about 10-15' high out of both vents once in a 30-minute observed period.
33746 04 Jan 2024 @ 1549 --- Graham Light puffy steam. Cistern high but below overflow. Erosion in SV channel, a big rock has dislodged from the right side.
33730 02 Jan 2024 @ 1150 --- JR No water but slightly audible, forceful steam. Whole area is covered in ice, including boardwalk. Beautiful but use caution!
33477 27 Dec 2023 @ 1335 27 Dec 2023 @ 1415 JR Back to impressive minors. Approx 50'-60' burst out of North Vent. Intense water flow between both vents that held strongly for a few seconds. Strong run off, rushing and hot. Deep rumbling below, some gurgling from the mud pots.
33373 23 Dec 2023 @ 1045 --- JR Nice play from both vents. Decent, audible, creek-like runoffs a few minutes apart.
33300 21 Dec 2023 @ 1400 --- JR Minors are much less aggressive than a few days ago. Still reaching 25' from the North Vent but South Vent play is much less pronounced. Observed minors are not producing near the volume of water seen a few days ago.
33095 19 Dec 2023 @ 1000 --- JR Strong minors, strong flow. Approximately 5 minutes apart over an observed 30 minutes. 30-50'
32866 15 Dec 2023 @ 1110 --- JR A very strong minor from North and South in concert. Followed by a loud full runoff. Several nice minors this morning but that one in particular was stronger and longer than the others.
31721 29 Nov 2023 @ 1445 --- JR Steamboat had a few decent minors out of both the north and the south vent. Most observed activity since the eruption on the 13th. The runoff channel was flowing slightly, decent pool at steerage. Nothing overly impressive but the minors are just a few minutes apart.
29036 22 Oct 2023 @ 0837 --- SantaFe108 Light huffing steam, did not see any water in the few minutes I stood there.
28963 21 Oct 2023 @ 1505 --- JR Steaming quietly. Dry runoff. Lots of gurgling in front from lower platform
28871 19 Oct 2023 @ 1111 --- DanS Huffing steam with a small amount of water splashing from NV.
28776 14 Oct 2023 @ 1100 --- Dan A Gently steaming
28739 12 Oct 2023 @ 1000 --- Dan A Steamboat is pretty quiet, North vent is gently huffing, no forced steam from south vent seen.
28728 10 Oct 2023 @ 0822 --- bbev 1D,17hrs PE: Skated down to mid deck on sheet of ice. SB still in mixed water. Steady, light flow down SV channel, that is not originating from SV, but possibly from crack below Jaba. Mudpot in front of mid deck is really active, spewing water and grey mud down to the SV runoff channel. CS down 18-20" below overflow, having dropped less than a foot overnight. Thanks for the farewell eruption! Maybe we will see you again next year?
28716 09 Oct 2023 @ 1120 09 Oct 2023 @ 1400 cb SB was in heavy mixed steam water when i got here about 1030 & changed to all steam at 1120 - 1215. Then back to thicck mixed steam/water from both vents (sometimes NV appeared to be all water.) through 1400. Occasionally SV will switch to roaring steam and NV tries to pause but neither actually does.
28701 07 Oct 2023 @ 1030 07 Oct 2023 @ 1930 bbev SB active, with strong, tall NV. Three events at approx 1030, 1340, and 1640 were strong enough events that could have led to an eruption, IMO. The last two events were Concerted minors, with water from both vents well over the trees, as seen at mid-deck.
28628 05 Oct 2023 @ 1116 --- cb occasional concerted angled play that will end in a V bounce, but mostly just independent angled minors. NV dominated, just one weak river from SV, mostly just a consistent trickle to steerage.
28547 29 Sep 2023 @ 1242 --- User34 One decent concerted minor with many vertical bursts from North and heavy angled play from South. Put out a solid babbling brook. Other minors barely had any South/runoff, but frequent NVV
28539 27 Sep 2023 @ 1155 29 Sep 2023 @ 1235 DanS Improving from last week. NV some vertical, SV more voluminous with 3 babbling brooks during this period.
28446 24 Sep 2023 @ 1018 24 Sep 2023 @ 1048 DanS Angled 20 ft play from NV, SV to 5 ft. Modest trickle of runoff reaching steerage.
28386 21 Sep 2023 @ 0900 --- CraigC 20' minors from NV, splashing from SV. Small steady trickle in runoff.
28277 16 Sep 2023 @ 1100 --- cb quick peek before wk. Nothing exciting to report. Occational NV 10' splashes. SV random spray (3') & its channel is mostly dry except for a seeps about 1/2 way down the channel. Feature above the NV confluence is gurgling but no visable water spits.
28039 05 Sep 2023 @ 1737 --- cb gently steaming, channels dry. small Vent above the confluence is gurgling and grumbling but no tip of splashes seen.
28007 04 Sep 2023 @ 1600 --- cb NV has a mildly forceful continuous steam column. channels are dry. Trough is void of any water.
27844 29 Aug 2023 @ 0933 --- cb 3D15.5H PE. SB is STILL in mixed steam & water phase. Strong & forceful huffing with impressive billows of steam & water from both vents. Both runoff channels have continuous flow of water down to Steerage. Cistern Spring water level is just a hair (2") below the inner rim, it's clear, blueish & a few occational bubbles still breaking the surface in the center.
27827 28 Aug 2023 @ 1025 28 Aug 2023 @ 1150 Tara mixed steam and water, both vents steady water, NV ~30-40', SV ~10-15'. steady light runoff in both channels.
27815 27 Aug 2023 @ 1644 --- cb 1D22.5H PE. NV has a thin veil of water in the forceful billowing steam. SV is in steam. There is a vent below Jabbas jaw, and the tips of splashes are visible from middle deck. The confluence vent is still intermittently spitting water 8-10". Cistern Spring is down ~2' from overflow with a weak bubble in the center, it's clear and blue.
27814 27 Aug 2023 @ 0804 27 Aug 2023 @ 0816 bbev 38hrs PE: Both vents still heavy steam. Both runoff channels have light trickle due to precipitation from tall steam cloud. NV may have some water mixed but difficult to tell due to the rain from steam cloud going straight up. CS down only 18-20" from overflow, clear with occasional bubble rising to the surface. ES is very clear and flat, overflowing.
27789 26 Aug 2023 @ 0947 --- cb 15.75H Steamboat is still in steam phase. Very billowy steam but not very loud anymore. No water in the steam. Small vent in the confluence of the NV run off channel is still blipping 8"-1' high.
27797 26 Aug 2023 @ 0756 --- bbev 14 hrs PE: Both vents all steam, heavy condensation/precipitation at mid deck and thru the dip. Much quieter, no water visible from either vent.
27644 16 Aug 2023 @ 1550 16 Aug 2023 @ 1630 Art Mostly quiet with occasional thick North solo. Very weakly concerted minors from time to time putting light runoff down to steerage. Shoulder dry but very warm out and full Sun.
27622 15 Aug 2023 @ 1625 --- cb not much change from yesterday. NV has some short lived (short D) but impressive V bursts/bounces, but SV is mostly angled spray. 2 nice concerted thiccckish minors as i was leaving for Steerage. Back shoulder is mostly dry. SV runoff channel has a consistent weak trickle into the trough (debris pile!)
27599 14 Aug 2023 @ 1500 --- cb NV active with tall, sometimes thick angled and V play. SV is lackluster. Angled 5' spray. spots on the runoff channel are dry. back shoulder mostly dry. weak trickle of water at Steerage
27580 14 Aug 2023 @ 0810 14 Aug 2023 @ 0825 bbev Both vents active with NV tall and thick. Difficult to see SV, but runoff is steady, and light, with occasional increase in volume. Channel appears to be “whitening” somewhat, but could just be the lighting. Evidence of increased activity from SV, based on the gravel pit (formally referred to as the trough) being washed from last observation. Appears to have been some flow on the north side of the “pit” below the bridge. Steady, light runoff at steerage, with some change in color of the channel. CS remains low, only overflowing out the back channel. Muddy pool much lower than last week.
27520 11 Aug 2023 @ 1039 11 Aug 2023 @ 1050 bbev NV active, occasionally tall, and voluminous with some vertical bounce. SV runoff has continuous light runoff with occasional heavier runoff. CS only overflowing out the back channel, muddy pool water level down considerably.
27434 06 Aug 2023 @ 1029 --- bbev NV active and somewhat percussive, tall and bouncy. SV steady light runoff at steerage. No obvious sign of any recent, heavy runoff from SV. CS overflowing out back channel only. 1034 concerted minor that increased flow at steerage somewhat, nothing impressive.
27330 30 Jul 2023 @ 0927 --- EmilyW Mostly angled, no runoff, very wispy and short. Some concerted. North is bigger than south. Runoff at the steerage is but a trickle.
27194 24 Jul 2023 @ 1234 --- bbev NV more active than yesterday with some vertical bounce and much thicker. SV runoff has a steady trickle of water, but SV still lacking any height or volume.
27169 23 Jul 2023 @ 1413 --- mhreed Vents lethargic—tens of seconds to a minute between splashes. Only a tiny trickle of water in NV and SV runoff channels.
27163 23 Jul 2023 @ 1319 --- bbev SV runoff channel is bone dry! Not even a trickle out of Jabba's jaw. Shoulder is dry. NV throwing angled minors 25+'. SV barely getting over the top of ET!
27117 18 Jul 2023 @ 1412 18 Jul 2023 @ 1600 Polly Minors of note: 1423 Concerted of a longish duration with NVCenter that produced a Babbling Brook +. (Not as tall as the last couple of days). 1547-48 Concerted, full across & strong with a lengthy Raging River. (Not the tallest I’ve seen this week, but definitely the most runoff.). No follow up seen. Overall, the booms and rumbles of yesterday were absent today except for a couple of lesser sounds during this observation.
27116 18 Jul 2023 @ 0940 18 Jul 2023 @ 1038 Polly Overall this hour had less activity than was observed yesterday. There were 3 babbling brooks. One concerted minor had a wide North Vent (North Vent with vertical center) and a decent duration.
27102 17 Jul 2023 @ 1120 17 Jul 2023 @ 1230 Polly On the quiet side for a half hour or so, but with 3 South Vent solos. Then: 1205 Concerted with forceful North 1210 C Strong wide minor that produced a raging river 1211 C Follow-up (short duration & not as strong) 1219 C Follow-up minor - fairly strong with a longer duration than most minors today It calmed down again after this.
27101 17 Jul 2023 @ 1020 17 Jul 2023 @ 1120 Polly Minors are generally of longer durations and stronger than they were two days ago. North Vent is very boomy and rumbling. It had some nice tall bursts, with one “Wow!” height briefly. Some minors were wide, with 3 NVCenter and 2 good bounces. There were 2 South Vent solos. South is taller than previous days. During the hour there were 7 audible runoffs and 2 babbling brooks.
27073 15 Jul 2023 @ 1150 15 Jul 2023 @ 1250 Polly North Vent has some tall bursts and some of the minors are wide with short center bounce. It has more water in the bursts (and not airy like yesterday). It is boomy at times. South Vent had a couple of solos. Runoff audible or babbling brook after 8 minors. Minors generally more organized than I saw during yesterday’s observation.
27066 14 Jul 2023 @ 1024 14 Jul 2023 @ 1144 Polly Some improvement over what it’s been doing the last couple of days. Decent minor in progress on my approach. 2 audible runoffs, 5 babbling brooks and 1 raging river over the course of just over an hour. At 1134-5 a concerted minor with a Very boomy strongish North Vent that had me looking to see if an airplane was flying over. (Really quiet after that one.) North Vent bursts are still mostly airy. South Vent is putting out more water than previous days. Most minors are of short duration.
27047 13 Jul 2023 @ 0924 13 Jul 2023 @ 1024 Polly Minors are still mostly weak and of short duration. North is quite airy during this time period, and occasionally has booms, rumbles, and some height. South height is mostly short. There were 2 audible runoffs.
27033 12 Jul 2023 @ 1608 12 Jul 2023 @ 1708 Polly Tall North single burst at the beginning - I was standing on the platform near the ramp and it was taller than the trees in back of it. Minors were about half North initiated and half concerted, but still more bursty and had short durations as well as being on the weak side. Nice minor at 1704: SNSN pause C with a decent-sized N center bounce. No follow up.
27032 12 Jul 2023 @ 0905 12 Jul 2023 @ 1005 Polly Shoulder by big rock wet again on top, as is the South Vent channel. Many short duration, concerted minors that are mostly weak. One tall North concerted quick minor at 0953, with quiet period following. Also a “boom” spray from North at 1008.
27011 11 Jul 2023 @ 0940 11 Jul 2023 @ 1040 Polly South Vent channel was wetter this morning with water resting on top of the shoulder by the big boulder. Minors this morning were more “bursty” with short pauses in between bursts. 5 minors lasted 10-16 seconds. North is still tall with many bursts almost steam driven and wispy. Some audible run-off.
26996 10 Jul 2023 @ 1436 10 Jul 2023 @ 1612 Polly Minors farther between with only 2-3 of note each hour. 2-3 babbling brooks and 3 minors with North center vertical bounces.
26995 10 Jul 2023 @ 1118 10 Jul 2023 @ 1127 Polly 1118 North with center vertical & small South. Babbling brook. 1124 C with smallish North center vertical and South a little better. (~15 seconds but no “oomph” to it.) 1127 South solo of about the same volume as earlier. North has had some steam forced tall sprays today.
26994 10 Jul 2023 @ 0842 10 Jul 2023 @ 1000 Polly North Vent is still dominate with some high bursts and one vertical in the center. South Vent has more height than yesterday. Most minors were of short duration, although some came 1-3 minutes apart. More runoff in South channel than yesterday. About 80% concerted.
26977 09 Jul 2023 @ 1710 09 Jul 2023 @ 1750 Polly In some sort of a lull. Mostly splashes, but a few weak minors at the bottom of the hour. North was on the tall side but thin with some of the splashes/minors. South was still on the short side and more intermittent.
26965 09 Jul 2023 @ 1454 --- cb Sporadic play dominated by NV (~20' and kinda gets vertical at times🤔). Some occational SV ~5' -8' that dampens its channel. Back shoulder & channel dry. A WEAK trickle of water down SV at steerage. Debris have not moved since last eruption.
26973 09 Jul 2023 @ 1135 09 Jul 2023 @ 1235 Polly Arrived to see the start of a strong minor that was full all across and that included lengthy water in the center. It lasted 20 seconds or more. (I lost count.) It was not as high nor as strong as I would have liked to see, but certainly made me smile! Certainly a step in the right direction. The follow-up minor was not as strong. The hour was about 70% concerted, with North stronger and with more volume and height than yesterday. South Vent is dumping out decent water, but is mostly only a few feet tall (except during strong minors.). There were a couple of babbling brooks at ~1215. (North was wide and tall but no center.) Addendum: 1251-1253 At Steerage, I heard & saw 2 good minors with babbling brook runoff. The water was sending pebbles down and also making dents in the sand at the trough.
26925 08 Jul 2023 @ 1022 08 Jul 2023 @ 1122 Polly The South Vent channel was wet on my arrival and remained that way. Some quiet periods with just splashes, but improved as the hour went on. The best concerted minor was at 1059, with a North Vent center bounce. (Activity lessened after that minor, but started to improve again near the end of the hour.) North had some somewhat tall thin bursts, but South was shorter (and harder to see due to wind direction). Some of the minors lasted several seconds. Only one or two minors made audible runoff. (There was also a steady trickle of water down the front channel, but may have been due to a small spouter uphill.)
26881 07 Jul 2023 @ 0915 07 Jul 2023 @ 1015 Tara Mostly weak minors, steady light flow at Steerage but lots of debris in channel. Trough is not dug out at all. One concerted minor during this time brought down a few small pebbles.
26821 04 Jul 2023 @ 0835 --- MAB walked up to a NV spritz - SV audible later but obscured by steam
26745 30 Jun 2023 @ 1055 --- cb mostly just steam. a few random angled low level splashes from both vents. NV runoff channel is dry as a bone as is back shoulder & steerage.
26672 25 Jun 2023 @ 1518 --- steve I didn’t watch for long. All I saw were weak north vent splashing with almost no runoff.
26638 24 Jun 2023 @ 1014 --- cb brief observation from middle deck. mostly still steam with an occational NV ~5'-8' angled splash. Just steam from SV & its channel is mostly dry albeit for a narrow moist ribbon of dampness from Jabbas jaw to steerage. A few scattered active mud pots on the platform thst can be heard gurgling & sputtering. pool at steerage is dry.
26357 16 Jun 2023 @ 0900 --- CrisG gently steaming on this cool morning. very slight trickle of water at steerage but not pooling or creating runoff from the gravel pit
26321 14 Jun 2023 @ 1801 --- CrisG slight trickle of water coming down the hill at steerage and pooling on the gravel at the bridge. has been gently steaming all day.
26267 12 Jun 2023 @ 1005 --- cb 2D21H PE.. No water seen from either vent. Tall but gentle billowing steam. no huffing sounds. Done
26237 11 Jun 2023 @ 1000 --- cb 1D 20.5H PE. Still continuing to throw water from both vents in rhythmical huffs. water at steerage is milky.
26217 10 Jun 2023 @ 1140 10 Jun 2023 @ 1200 bbev ~22hrs PSBE, NV is mixed steam with very little water. Cycling to heavier water as I came back from CS. NV spiking 50-60', broad "grand like, vertical" eruption. SV heavy steam. 1149 SV water returning, spray to 10' with light runoff. 1156 NV ejecting an occasional rock an spiking 70'+, SV increased water to 15'+.
26174 08 Jun 2023 @ 1000 08 Jun 2023 @ 1300 Dan A Activity a bit better than yesterday, thicker north and better water from south.
26148 08 Jun 2023 @ 0710 --- Polly Looking at the updated USGS Steamboat graph, it looks like my observation yesterday was at the peak for the day. So, likely still recovering yesterday.
26132 07 Jun 2023 @ 1453 07 Jun 2023 @ 1553 Polly Steamboat seemed stronger during my observation today than what I saw yesterday morning. Most minors appeared to be concerted, although I didn’t keep detailed notes. There was audible runoff on several minors, including a couple of babbling brooks. At times, North Vent seemed to be steam driven with little water, but much more water was seen in the minors during the middle of the hour. There were at least 3 quick splashes of water from the middle during stronger North Vent minors. I heard some rumbling, and the runoff channel is still a bit milky. The trough at Steerage is still quite full. Addendum: (Thursday, June 8) Looking at the updated Steamboat graph, looks like what I saw was the peak of the day.
26060 05 Jun 2023 @ 1240 --- Ben VL Play is as advertised from the graph. Longer quiet periods, a bit of volume, brief minors. Occasional NVV bounce and small babbling brook from SV. NV a lot less percussive. Trough still a tad milky. Cistern appears to still be at the same level.
26046 05 Jun 2023 @ 0715 05 Jun 2023 @ 0815 Graham Very weak compared to 2 days ago. Little activity from NV at all. No improvement by 1120 per Ben and he may even leave!
26033 04 Jun 2023 @ 0754 04 Jun 2023 @ 2139 Ben VL Nice runoff upon arrival. Very strong minor at 0822 with followup at 0824. HUGE false start at 1234 with tall NVV and sustained SVV with followup 40'+ NV vertical spike at 1235. This event moved more gravel out of the trough and enlarged it. A couple more smaller concerted verticals throughout the day but no real push before we left.
25989 03 Jun 2023 @ 1900 --- Graham Two good minors with no follow-up ~1200 and 1500.
25969 02 Jun 2023 @ 1030 02 Jun 2023 @ 1545 Tara Very general observations, large minor at 1030 with huge SV and heavy runoff. Brought rocks down but did not alter the trough. Several NVVs after and then another large minor with sustained NV at 1100. After that it was improved from yesterday but had not recovered to the strength of 2 days ago.
25952 01 Jun 2023 @ 1740 --- Graham Must have had a strong minor overnight as some chunks of gravel were moved in the trough. Dan and others reported a strong minor around 0800 with no follow-up. Nothing significant before I left at 1740.
25953 01 Jun 2023 @ 0630 --- CraigC Nice "Is it erupting???" minor eruption event around 0800, concerted and sustained. Lesser event again around 1200. Back to back decent minor eruptions around 2000, with several decreasing minors spread over next 20 minutes. Slow afternoon lull. C'mon Steamboat!
25938 31 May 2023 @ 1000 31 May 2023 @ 2200 Ben VL Kinda lackluster before noon. 1210 concerted vertical that ejected a butterfly. Concerted sustained vertical with RR at 1515. 1743-1804 active with several more concerted verticals and good runoff. A couple more good minors before I left but nothing like earlier in the evening.
25920 30 May 2023 @ 1036 30 May 2023 @ 2145 Ben VL In addition to Bill's observations, there were concerted vertical minors at 1129, 1134, ~1201 (stronger), [break], 1451 (quite nice with good raging river), 1534, 1535, & 1641. Got chased out by some rain after that. Two more CsV minors in the evening but did not log time. NV has decent volume and SV was getting more sustained and voluminous throughout the day.
25904 30 May 2023 @ 0845 30 May 2023 @ 1035 bbev Impressive conserted vertical minor that was sustained for 20-30 seconds. 0920 another impressive CVS with good runoff. Water at trough turned from clear to briefly milky after last minor. Left the area at 1035.
25896 29 May 2023 @ 1522 29 May 2023 @ 1552 Graham Much weaker play than this morning. NV weak. No significant water from SV, only one audible runoff, not a babbling brook. This morning there were several babbling brooks in a similar time-frame.
25854 28 May 2023 @ 1922 --- SantaFe108 Quick 5 minute peek. Angled, unconcerted play from both vents. SV put a couple babbling brooks down.
25844 28 May 2023 @ 1215 28 May 2023 @ 1230 bbev SB having mostly angled play from both vents. NV bubbler is audible and spitting water occasionally. Seems to me to be in a slightly different location than where l saw it last year. SV runoff steady at bridge, with trough still very full of gravel, and established runoff going to the south towards Echinus. CS remains high with heavy overflow in all directions. ES is clear and flat.
25725 23 May 2023 @ 1517 --- cb mostly angled airy action from both vents. Occational thiiiicker SV that puts out a babbling brook. back shoulder is just damp. No V action. Meh...
25668 21 May 2023 @ 1510 --- SantaFe108 Watched for about 10 mins. All angled play and usually not in concert. Only two concerted minors that were decent sized but entirely angled. Those two minors put babbling brooks down, but otherwise light, constant runoff.
25537 18 May 2023 @ 1956 18 May 2023 @ 2013 bbev Both vents still having angled play, mostly independent of one another. Trough has filled considerably with gravel from yesterday. Steady trickle with one good runoff that rolled gravel at 2006. Runoff does not appear to have enough volume to reach tantalus creek. CS still in heavy overflow
25500 17 May 2023 @ 1612 17 May 2023 @ 1653 bbev both vents active with angled play. SV runoff channel wet with occasional gravel rolling runoff. NV hit 25' on several occasions. CS overflowing heavily in all directions, water level well over the edges of entire pool. Trough completely full of gravel, with water running out the south side rather than directly under bridge. Crazy erosion in NV channel, with gravel nearly refilling the channel at that bridge.
25487 16 May 2023 @ 1917 --- cb I just entered the 2 known Steamboat eruptions for March and the possible eruption in Feb. So far, there is no data for April.
25459 15 May 2023 @ 1818 15 May 2023 @ 1840 ypcaribou Casual splash from SV every so often at random, but mostly huffing, ET wet, channels mostly dry. Tinyest trickle in NV channel below. SV channel barely damp with no visible water flow. Debris at Steerage is fully across entire channel and within maybe 6" of bottom of bridge. CNVSV splashing for a few seconds around 1842 but not tall as seen from Steerage.
25376 08 May 2023 @ 1015 --- Scott H Still in steam phase at 1015; steam column no longer visible from road by 1315 on my return trip.
