Yesterday (July 19th) morning, we went back up to Canyon, Yellowstone, to see what we missed because of the thunderstorm.
Wildlife!
Wildlife! That’s a pelican.
Wildlife! Elk!
Wildlife! More bison!
Wildlife! Rabbit!
Back at Canyon, this is Upper Falls.
We took a short walk down to the brink of Upper Falls.
Wildlife! Elk up close!
While Dad, Sister, Eddie, and Marty walked down to the brink of Lower Falls, Charlie and Mom went to the three overlooks of Lower Falls.
This view was well worth the strenuous climb back up 3/8 of a mile, with an elevation gain of 600 feet by way of 10 switchbacks.
Then we visited Inspiration Point, but couldn’t get a great picture because the lower bit of the observation deck was closed.
We did get a good view from a spot not on the observation deck.
Then we visited the Mud Volcano stop. This is the Dragon’s Mouth.
This is Eddie by the Mud Volcano. It used to spew mud high into the air, but it spewed itself out.
After that, we drove down south out of Yellowstone and into Grand Teton National Park. It was pretty, but because of wildfires in Washington it was pretty hazy.
