elk and pronghorn and buffalo oh my!

After we left Black Hills we drove through the Big Horn Mountains to get to Yellowstone. The scenery was wonderful until we were so high that we were in a cloud and could not see anything!

That evening we arrived in Yellowstone National Park. We were greeted by a huge buffalo at the entrance! I could not believe the size of it. On Tuesday night we stayed at a campsite in Yellowstone. On Wednesday morning we woke up at around 6 with about an inch of snow on our tent! That morning we went to the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and saw one of the most amazing waterfalls. We spent the day driving around Yellowstone and looking at all of the waterfalls and wildlife. We also stopped a couple of times so Lyn could fish. Before we left Yellowstone we went to see Old Faithful. It was really neat to see the water come out of the ground and go 60 feet up in the air!

Today we spent the day driving to Utah. We were supposed to make it to Bryce and camp there, but it took us a little longer than expected! So, we got a hotel near Zion National Park.
