Addi, Kaia, and Tess this waterfall is called Fairy Falls, and it is the tallest one at Yellowstone. Can you see the houses of the water fairies? The fairies look like water sparkles.
We cross the Continental Divide several times a day. We decided to use the timer on the camera to take a picture. Guess who parked too far away?
Shortly after this picture we stopped where a crowd of people were looking over a bridge. Joy saw a BIG Grizzly bear. But it went behind the trees before we could get a picture. (This sounds like the fish that got away but honest, it's true!)
We went for a bike ride down a wide gravel path. We came to a clearing where a big herd of bison were on both sides of the path including very close to it. Talk about feeling vulnerable! We were afraid to turn around, so we rode steady through the herd. One bull honestly pawed the ground. The best part was then we had to ride back through the herd to get back. The bison are so far away because we didn't want to stop to near them. (Wimps)
These piles of logs are everywhere. They are left from a forest fire. The climate is so dry they don't rot. They just lay there until the next fire.
These two haven't fallen over yet. The black is burned bark.
Yellowstone's winter snow is just now melting. Most rivers are very high, many are raging torrents.
The more corners they turn the faster they run.
Off to the Grand Tetons first thing tomorrow morning. No campground reservations! (Joy and Gary living on the edge.)
You are turning into wild and crazy kids. I would not have ridden through that herd!!
