Yellowstone and the Tetons



As I mentioned in my post about Mr M's family reunion, we went to Yellowstone one day, but got detoured by road work and arrived much later than we’d planned. Luckily we arrived not long before Old Faithful erupted, so we were able to see that at least.



isn't he a little cutie?

We explored the visitor's center for a bit, but it was getting late, so we headed back to camp, but took the southern route to avoid the road work we’d encountered on the way to Yellowstone. However, while super scenic, I think the southern route was just as long, if not longer, as the detour we’d had to take earlier. Needless to say we were very late getting back to camp for dinner.

When you drive south from Yellowstone NP, you then enter Grand Teton NP. We didn’t have time to stop and see anything, though I did manage to catch some cool pictures as we drove. We encountered a summer storm that lit up the Tetons spectacularly.






This is my favorite photo of the evening:
