A dwarf geyser Plosky (Flat) with size of the griffin 10x10 cm was located on the left bank of the Vodopadny creek. It was first described and named by the Sugrobovs in the 1970s. "Hot water at the outpouring stage appears from a hole with a diameter of 10 cm. The eruption begins with a weak boiling, which, intensifying, leads to the expulsion of water over the edges of the funnel. During the rest period, the channel is emptied for several seconds. The average duration of the cycle is 2 minutes, the eruption is 50 seconds" (Sugrobov et al., 2009). In 2007, it was covered with landslide deposits and ceased to exist.
