This photo was taken within Yellowstone National Park and shows a cableway view of Lamar River near Tower Ranger Station. Less than half a mile downstream, the Lamar River flows into the more well-known Yellowstone River. When this photo was taken, flows were just a bit above average at the streamgage.

Aerial view of Kapoho Crater looking toward the south-southeast. Part of the lava channelbecame blocked just upstream of Kapoho Crater yesterday, diverting flows to the west and then south around the crater (center right). Lava exiting a crusted section of the channel continued flowing in the channel pathway (lower center to left).
