and home to a variety of free roaming wildlife! The place is just huge with so much to see and do. We stayed there 4 days and got a little taster of the park. Again camping in a lovely little spot under the trees, tucked away in a quiet corner with the obligitory nightly fire!The second photo is at Mammoth Hot Springs, a hydrothermal area just full of blowing geysers (a bit like Keith really but these are blowing steam!) The water in the pools is bubbling away as most of it is just about at boiling point (a bit like me after all of Keith's blowing!)
The fourth photo is our lunch break overlooking the beaver ponds during a long hike. Even though the park is busy you just don't see anyone on these hikes!
We were very pleased with ourselves once we got to the top of Mt Washburn. It was a little wildlife feast with deer and babies, a variety of birds and marmots on the way up.
Yellowstone River is something special as it meanders through the canyon, the colours are just beautiful with the water glistening like a Mediterranean sea.
Old Faithful is the park's most famous geyser which spews gallons of water 150ft in the air every 90 minutes. It really is a sight to see, everyone sits around on benches waiting for it to do it's party piece, and of course it gets a round of applause!
