Yellowstone

Yellowstone is a beautiful park with so many wonderous sites to see, so I will let the photos do the talking... 

We watched this group of birds feed in the Snake River by our campsite in the national forest between Grand Tetons & Yellowstone National Parks.

Old Faithful

This geyser shot so much water out it blew onto the walk way.

A black bear mama with her 2 cubs.

You can see one of the cubs next to the log behind the mama.

We watched the cubs wrestle with each other as the mama grazed on the grass.

A herd of about 30 (mostly young) elk were walking through the Manmmoth Lodge area as we were driving through. 

We couldn't find camping in Yellowstone so we headed to BLM land north of the park and found this awesome spot right on the Yellowstone river that we were able to camp at for free and it was totally private.

We were surrounded by mountains and nothing but the sound of the river beside us.

We also got to watch a very colorful sunset.
