Yellowstone. First and Best, so the signs might say. Definitely huge, challenging, and chock a block full of sites and sounds. Oh yeah, and weather. Rain, wind, hail. Oh yeah.
No luck looking for the wolf pack; but all the other large mammals out in force.
Thermal features as engaging and entertaining as always.
Backcountry lakes, waterfalls, wild and scenic rivers, serene hikes, wildflowers and birds.
RAIN. WIND. HAIL.
Happy to move south to the Tetons.

Do you have to pay extra to get these close shots of bear & bison?
