After our Wonderland Trail hike we visited my Uncle Pete in Olympia, Washington then drove up to Vancouver Island and finally made a stop at Yellowstone National Park before going home. Yellowstone is incredible and there are two memories that stick out to me.
First, the bison. I had never seen a bison in real life before and in Yellowstone they are everywhere. There was a time when the herd was moving and just blocking the road and the rangers said you just have to wait for them. I love that. In the park the nature is in charge, not the people.

The next best part of the trip was seeing Old Faithful and the hot springs.

This water is actually extremely hot!
And here are some more pictures because why not, it’s a beautiful place!

Can you imagine what our country would look like if we didn’t protect our land from development? Thank goodness indeed!

A lot worse than it already does. Even the parks are in danger because of all the visitors 😕

Bison are large beasts. I’ve seen them while on road trips to visit family in Montana. When a bison makes a bisonpie, they’re quite noticable, heh.

I love Yellowstone – I have been there twice, and I can’t wait to go back. Paul and I have talked about a winter trip, as it seems like it would be an incredible sight when there aren’t many people.

I imagine so – just seeing the geysers and hot springs without a lot of people would be worth it to me.
