Spectacular Day of Geysers and Bison

Does the picture above remind anyone else of The Beatles, Abbey Road? Today, September 6, 2023, is OUR LAST day in Yellowstone. The weather was perfect all day. We started off with jeans and sweatshirts, but at lunchtime switched into shorts.  Almost there… Another fun eruption we caught…Turban Geyser Castle Geyser: Although I missed the… Continue reading Spectacular Day of Geysers and Bison

Yellowstone Bull Elk Jackpot !

September 5, 2023 – After dinner Barry and I set out on our mission to see a bull elk. We went to the Lake Village Hotel area. As we went down the road we saw these two. We stopped. The fawn’s spots were fading. Soon we realized there were two fawns! While these deer were… Continue reading Yellowstone Bull Elk Jackpot !

Yellowstone Sep 2, 2023 – Hayden Valley Sunrise, Bison, & So Much More

It is amazing how close these entire herds get to the roads (and use the roads). Sometimes though, you are watching a group, and then a few other bison come up around the other side of you. You always need to be alert. These bison really cover a lot of ground! This quick clip pans… Continue reading Yellowstone Sep 2, 2023 – Hayden Valley Sunrise, Bison, & So Much More

We briefly stopped by this visitor center yesterday,… Continue reading Fishing Bridge Visitor Center + Scenic Drive

Yellowstone Aug 31, 2023 – Lamar Valley for Wildlife

Today our goal was to see animals out in the Lamar Valley in the northeast section of the park, so we headed out at 6:00AM. SUCCESS!! Early morning was definitely best!

Yellowstone NP Day1 – Mammoth Hot Springs + Falls

We made it yesterday from Glacier National Park to Yellowstone in one day. A few views leaving Glacier. I had to quickly snap the next two picture to prove to Arlie that we really did pass through Arlee, Montana (an unincorporated community in MT). Of course they didn’t spell it correctly. LOL We planned to… Continue reading Yellowstone NP Day1 – Mammoth Hot Springs + Falls

Glacier NP – Easier Exploration

Today was our third and last day to explore Glacier National Park. We were NOT up for any long hike, but we felt we could tackle a couple easy and of course significantly shorter hikes today. I wore my Keen sport sandals with socks (and bandaids). My hiking shoes were not an option. Nor were… Continue reading Glacier NP – Easier Exploration
