Yellowstone…expansive and diverse. Grass covered plains and lush green pine covered mountains. Pristine lakes, bubbling mud pots and gushing geysers. This picture is Palette Spring at Mammoth Hot Springs, an ever evolving changing landscape. We had to some back to Yellowstone again as the two days we spent in early June were not enough to take it all in.
The first time through we pretty much covered the West side of the part, so this trip was to see the East side. On the drive down to Yellowstone Lake we got a good look at the area of the ’88 forest fire and happy to see all the new growth taking over from the ashes of the fire. There were herds of bison, one deer and a group of mountain sheep. At Sulphur Caldron puddles of mud boiled and bubbled.
For anyone heading out West, Yellowstone is a “must see”. Plan to spend a minimum of 4 to 5 days, more if you can.
