Note: | 6/16/1988 Steamvalve erupted from approx 1:40 pm until 1:44 pm - Max height of bursts 6-8 ft; initial bursts splashed visitors at fence. Steamvalve threw out approximately one dozen rocks early in its eruption. Water drained to about 1 ft below the runoff channel following the eruption. At 2:05: pH-5 water temp 170ºC [sic]. Water thrown up during the eruption appeared to have the consistency of fairly liquid mud/clay mixture. Erupted material was in the form of both “spouting” and the “blurping” noise commonly associated with mudpots |
