July 24 Old Faithfull

Wednesday July 24 

After breakfast we drove by Kieser Cascade then Old Faithful in time for eruption which occur at about ninety minutes intervals. Hiked the upper basin going as far as the grand Geyser. Not lucky enough to catch an eruption which occurs on six hour intervals. Although temperature is  only in the upper seventies the intensity of sun at this altitude makes it seem much hotter. Went to the Old Faithful Lodge for a beer and water.
