Yellowstone in a Whirl Wind

Beth and I spent about 3 days in and around Yellowstone and the Tetons. We did the figure 8 driving tour of Yellowstone in one jam packed day! I think we might have driven for over 9 to 10 hours, trying to see as much as we could!!

We saw bears, bison, elk, deer, and pelicans. We tried to hit all the major hot spots of Yellowstone, including Yellowstone falls and its Grand Canyon, Mammoth Hot Springs and countless other springs and geysers in the park, Yellowstone Lake, and many other nameless spots of awesome beauty and amazement.

The pictures below show some of what we saw in our whirl wind tour!!

A nice tourist took our picture at the southern entrance to Yellowstone!

Up close and personal with a Bison. Don't worry, we used a zoom!

A random hot spring!

An ever constant gushing geyser!
