Yellowstone is probably the most beautiful and fascinating land I’ve ever seen! From high snow covered peaks, to grassy valleys, canyons, waterfalls, lakes, rivers, its just amazing.

Then, you have your wild life, of which we, to this point, have only seen bison, elk, and various small ground animals like squirrels and chipmunks. Pelicans, geese, tons of other unnamed birds I’m sure.

All this stuff is amazing, and then you throw in the fact that the park is sitting on top of an active volcano!! I did not know that, there are bubbling pools of 200 degree waters, geysers, mud pits that percolate… it really at times feels like you are on a different planet!!

• Stay out of the hot pools!
