Slept in a little this morning and then got up and ready for our day trip- a scenic drive through Shoshone National Forest and Yellowstone going through Montana and Wyoming. The weather was beautiful, not too hot and clear skies so it allowed for lots of great pictures of the beautiful landscape; snow-capped mountains, mountain lakes, green tree covered mountains, and lots of beautiful views across valleys between mountains. The road we took snaked through the mountains and made switchbacks back and forth climbing up to over 10,000 feet elevation. Stopped to play in the snow in Wyoming and for a short climb for an even better view. In Yellowstone the wildlife was everywhere, as we were able to see a bear, antelope, deer, lots of bison, coyotes, and an elk and most within relatively close range. If that was a preview of what's to come when we actually camp in Yellowstone, we can't wait!
