CRYSTAL GEYSER
The geyser is just 10 miles south of the town of Green River, UT. We have been here 2 other times but the geyser never went off sso this time we decided to stay until it did go off. We got here about 10:30am and nothing was happening. Shortly afternoon the mud pot next to the geyser started making noise and at 2:30pm it blew really hig for the first time and for the next 5 hours the geyser would blow for about 5 mins. and the the mud pot would bubble for 5 mins. They went back and forth like that for 5 hours. What a sight to see. This is one of the largest cold water geysers. When we got up at 6:30 am it was active again but not much CO2 but alot more H2o. This is a Earthcache and the first cache I ever found is only about 500 ft away. Some girls came down the river on on rafts and canoes and they had a great time playing in the water.
