it threw water to a height of 50 feet, '
for a period of 15 to 20 minutes. On
our return, we witnessed Old Faith
ful in one of its regular r>8minute
eruptions, which continue for tour
minutes, throwing immense volumes j
of hot water a distance of 100 feet;
in the air, then subsiding, to again
play at its regular stated intervals
This is the geyser which all tourists
nave the pleasure of beholding in
action, and one day spent at this
point imuresses one with the ideas
which the name expresses. After
Old Faithful had subsided, wp paid
a visit to the formation on the other
side of Firehole river, on which are
the Bee Hive, Giantess, Punchbowl
anti many others. Here the forma
tion is marked “Dangerous,” and i
from the hollow sound, the numerous
holes and the thin crust over which
we walked, I tbinK rigb'ly named,
for after we had been over it once,1
each seemed to breathe easier and j
declared once was enough. After
supper, we bad the good fortune to!
see the Giant, the castle and Old
Faithful all play at the same time.
The Giant geyser, as its name im
plies. throws water 200 feet in the
air and continue* from 30 to GO min
utei, and occurs once in ten or
twelve days. The Castle s eruption
occurs once in 25 hours and was
about 00 feet high, throwing water
about 30 minutes and afterward
roaring steam an equal length of
time. On our return from tbs Cas
tie, we stopped in the “store” and
purchased mementoes of our visit.
After a refreshing night’s sleep, we
waited a few minutes for the farewell
eruption of Old Faithful and started
on our journey across the Continent
ai divide to the Thumb of Yellow
stane lake. After crossing from the
Atlantic to ike PaciSc slope, we
stopped at “Lacy creek and enjoyed a
cool, refreshing drink, and a little
farther on, from 8hoshone Point,
have a grand view of Shoshone lake
and the Teu'on mountains over in j
Idaho, fifty miles away, and which
ire said to be over 14,000 feet in i
jeight.
We continue to ascend the slop*
)f ibe Continental divide and at un
iltitude of 8,840 feet passonee more
,o the Atlantic slope. Sign boards
nark the highest points. From Lake
i'iew we get oui first view of Yellow
itone lake, and one mile further we;
’arnped for lunch near the Thumb of j
he lake. After lunch, while walk
ng among the geyser formations,
jere, we came upon five deer, and I
leoured snap shots of them with a]
* .
iodac. Our afternoon s drive takes
is to Bridge Bay, where we camped
for the night. Our camping ground
is a beautiful place overlooking the
lake. The single item of interest,
excepting the long stretch of pine
woods and an elk, was the Natural
Bridge, with its span of thirty feet
about forty feet above a small stream.
