Haynes new guide and motorists' complete road log of Yellowstone National Park . ng is a tiny geyser. It is here that messages are trans-mitted, so the story goes, to regions below. The Lion Geyser, with the Lioness and two Cubs,occupies a conspicuous mound west of the Giantess andin sight of the hotel. The Lioness Geyser has not been observed to playat all some seasons, while during other seasons eruptionshave been noted at intervals of about fifteen days. In1903 the Lion, Lioness and both Cubs, played simultane-ously one day for a large party of tourists. The largerCub plays with the Lioness to a height of thirty feet; thesmaller one plays frequently, but only a few feet high. A path leads from the Lion group past the LibertyPool to the Sawmill Geyser, which gets its name fromthe peculiar noise during eruptions; the maximum heightof this geyser is forty feet, and intervals three to fourhours. Its indicator is a few feet southeast; both theindicator and the Sawmill start together, and very sud-denly, throwing water in every direction. YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK 77. LL^-Ei: EGGS NEAR SAWMILL GEYSER The Grand Geyser is one of the finest in the discharges forked columns of water to a height of twohundred feet in a series of eruptions eclipsing Old Faithfuland occurring nearly every day. Adjacent to the Gl*and Geyse/r crater is the TurbanGeyser, which plays out of a small fissure next to themain crater of the Turban. When quiet, the largercrater often presents the appearance, in its interior, ofa dancing flame, caused by the light playing on the bub-bles of gas which constantly arise therefrom. Many ofthe early explorers really believed that internal fires werevisible here. Firehole Lake, at the Lower Basin, alsoaffords a good example of this phenomena. The Turbanplays twenty-five feet high and at an angle, eruptions last-ing an hour or more, and occurring with the Grand Geyserand at other times. The fittingly-named Economic Geyser is a fewrods north of the Turb
