Yellowstone - Day 1

Beautiful entry into the park from West Entrance. This morning was very foggy morning which added to the dynamic of this mystic place.

Steamboad Geyser - The largest geyser in the park was active while we where there but did not erupt. After many years being dormant, Steamboat has become active again, and erupts roughly 3-4 days.


Bison, Bison Everywhere. This guy was hanging out along the road for a quick snack. It was amazing to see visitors walking so close to the bison. He was very interested in eating and didn’t seem to mind, but we did see other bison that would look up as it to give the visitors a warning to back away. We mostly observed these quiet giants from the car.

Grand Canyon of Yellowstone - Fantastic view of the Yellowstone River and falls. We visited Upper Falls, Lower Falls, Artist Point. Uncle Tom’s Trail was closed for renovation. Maybe next time we visit we can take the 328 step staircase down the canyon.

At Canyon Visitor Center, we get to listen to a Ranger talk about foxes, coyotes and wolves within the park.
