photo request[edit]

The photo on the article (Image:Old Perpetual geyser.jpg) begs for several high resolution images. I want to see the thing better! —EncMstr (talk) 17:22, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Height and frequency of geyser[edit]

The geyser's height and frequency varies dramatically with the water table. When the water table is low (dry period especially end of summer) the geyser is much less impressive and less fequent. ChildofMidnight (talk) 17:50, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2021[edit]

Geyser seems dormant now, and resort is under renovation - https://www.sfgate.com/travel/article/California-Oregon-border-town-Lakeview-hot-springs-16548720.php

I was there in January 2021, and the geyser was active, though perhaps not as high as it has been historically. My guess is that the drought conditions of late were not very kind to the geyser, but it may bounce back when there is more groundwater to cycle around. The description of the hotel is accurate- we just wanted to walk around the grounds and look at the springs, but walked into the lobby and nobody was around. We walked all around the springs and nobody seemed to notice or care. The place looked like quite the mess. Lot's of potential but I would not want to stay there in its current condition.
