usa-roadtrip-2019Yellowstone to BozemanDon't be in a hurry here. This park demands time. If you give it that you'll have a very rewarding trip here. You never know what will be around the next bend in the road.
usa-roadtrip-2019The Only Rodeo in TownNeither of us had ever been to a Rodeo before. The child in the seat next to me positively bounced with glee at the possibility of going. So, we did.
usa-roadtrip-2019The Beartooth Highway LoopThe road from the North East entrance leads directly through Lamar Valley. A very famous place in park for watching wildlife.
usa-roadtrip-2019Bears, Otters, Wolves and MammothsWow, what a day. We saw several Bears, an Otter, a Wolfpack (no, not the NC State kind) and Mammoth Springs. It snowed blizzard style, in June.
usa-roadtrip-2019The Yellowstone Geyser BasinsEn-route to the West we passed by Old Faithful and the main geyser basins in the park. They are something to behold. Steam emitting from seemingly every orifice the ground has to offer.
usa-roadtrip-2019Grand Canyon of the YellowstoneThe colourful yellow rocks lining the canyon mark a change in the geology of the area and create the best waterfall I think I've ever seen.
usa-roadtrip-2019Grand Prismatic Spring and Old FaithfulWe're thinking that treating the park like it's on Spanish time might be the best approach. Rise early and tourist until lunch, then eat. Sleep off your lunch until around 3 or 4pm at which point you might consider heading out again.
usa-roadtrip-2019The Grand TetonsAn utterly majestic mountain range. Hidden from view until the moment you leave Jackson, at least the route we drove at any rate. Cat's review of them was "short and spiky". I mean, she's not wrong.
