Come on vacation with us!!

We started the day cool and cloudy - off to explore the northern "loop" of the park. I picked a few of the photos - there were hundreds! Beautiful landscape, cool animals.....

Interesting formations abound - we didn't have a guide book - just a map and wanted to enjoy what we came across. Sulfur smell was in the air at this spring....



Yellowstone river


Another spring



Beautiful vistas-


The Upper Falls of the Yellowstone River



Snow on the ground when we were out walking on a trail


Very peaceful and untouched....but you really did see signs of bear - footprints and droppings!



A different beautiful vista



This is the Lower Falls - probably one of the most photographed areas in Yellowstone - really amazing to see in person, though.....


Had to pose in front of it like a proper tourist!! Sorry for the sunglasses - but I tried to take them off and couldn't keep my eyes open!


More beauty - what can I say?



Impressive landscape....


Snow patches in the distance with hot springs steaming



Mud volcano - just like it sounds - boiling mud bubbling to the surface - smelly!!


"Sour Lake" - beautiful mineral lake - again kinda smelly!



Yellowstone River was beautiful -


And bison - everywhere!! Stay tuned for more!
