Day 8

Day 8


We ventured south in Yellowstone today. Our first stop was to see Old Faithful, which of course was on time. We made our way down to camp at Lewis Lake. On the way we got into a traffic jam with some bison trying to cross the road.

After setting up camp at a campground with no running water, but free registration, we traveled back north to West Thumb. The thermal features up against the lake and mountains was surreal. The snow capped mountains got us excited for the Grand Tetons. At one point we could even see them far off in the distance. We drove around a lot today and saw many elk. We are huddled in our tent, safe from the mosquitoes, looking forward to entering Grand Teton National Park tomorrow.
