Yellowstone.

This, our second visit to Yellowstone, was only slightly marred by the forest fires in Idaho spewing their smoke in our general direction. Also September is definitely the better time to visit, with fewer visitors and much better light.

However, I was still captivated by Yellowstone. Couple the well known thermal features with stunning river canyons, meadows and wildlife and it remains the most impressive US national park for me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One bonus this time was that we were not charged by a very angry Bison as on our first visit; an experience I am happy not to repeat.

This time they were just calmly ignoring us.

From here we headed down through the Tetons, picking up a new tire at Jackson Hole (The excellent Hoff's bike shop doing us proud), and on to The Great Basin..........
