Yellowstone Nat. Park picture thread.. Dial-up warning
We are having a great time. So far we have sited Buffalo, elk, moose, pronghorn antelope, bear, Eagles, osprey, marmosets, and a host of others. I am sitting in a hotel in Montana, at the North East entrance of the park doing laundry, shopping, etc.
I can not respond so please kick.. Next pictures will be Wednesday.

A buffalo "Ol Stampie" that hangs out at Old Faithful geyser.



Alison and the kids



enjoy, and if you do please kick.

3. My favorite national park
I have been twice, my parents used to live 50 miles from it, so it was a must-visit. I am taking Nini there for her first time in September.

Great pics!

4. Great stuff, man...
I never tire of going there. I had the pleasure once, of camping three weeks there with my brother. There's so much ground to cover and so much to see. Whatever you do though, don't ever wash your hair in Lake Yellowstone. My head froze like a popsicle.

7. Love the animal jam! Those buffalo herds just walk right in front of you
and stand where they please. Gotta love it.

Artist Paint Pots from over head, looks like.

Love love that place.

8. Thank you for those pictures, puerco-bellies
When I was much younger, our parents included Yellowstone
in our travels.

Very good photography, sir.

9. I was just there!
I drove through it on Friday but unlike you, I didn't see any buffalo. Lucky you! You saw enough for the both of us.
I was amazed at the many wonderful and odd sights at the park. Amazing!!
