Yellowstone !!!!!

So my next stop on this journey was to Gardiner, Montana. I was staying with Carolyn, an old friend of my dad's and impressive Yellowstone employee. The day after I arrived me, Carolyn and two of her friends traveled into Yellowstone. The three of them were so incredibly knowledgeable about the park and had explanations for everything before I was even able to ask. We were there for nearly 8 hours and I was able to see some of the most incredible natural inventions that I have ever seen. I must say, though I was impressed by the geysers, waterfalls, mountains, bison and elk, I think my favorite part were the roots of the fallen trees around the park. They were so beautiful and beetle-juicy looking. 

See the bison?! (they are in a forbidden romance, and can only stare at each other from a far...)





Old Faithful

See the leaf that is now imprinted in the thermophiles?




See what I mean?!




I love the bison.

A few days later, I went for a little walk to Mammoth Springs in the snow


and discovered another cool spring
