| Note: | While still looking quite black, the water level has risen a bit since my last visit a couple of weeks ago. The water is just beginning to fill the catch basin near the point of overflow. Water was a few inches above the line of microbes. The ephemeral spring up by the parking lot (across the boardwalk from "Fake Fumarole") doesn't appear to have sent water down under the boardwalk all the way to Abyss and Black Pool this year. (Or at least since access to West Thumb this year) That's a help. |
