Five-Years Ago (02-August-2010) — Utah and Nevada

Gone to See America August 2010 Road Trip. Day 2: Green River, Utah to Great Basin National Park, Nevada.

I went back to Crystal Geyser in the morning since I didn’t see it erupt the previous evening. The interesting thing about Crystal Geyser is that it is a cold geyser, powered by carbon dioxide. I did see a minor eruption, then hit the road for Great Basin National Park in Utah. I arrived at the Lehman Caves visitor center just in time for the final tour of the day.
