Traveled up through the Tetons on Monday hoping to see 399 and cubs but no luck. We did however see plenty of orange cones for no parking in 3 separate areas where bears are regularly being seen, although none of them visible during our time there. In Yellowstone there wasn't much happening the firs...

karenandbill, Love reading your reports and the photos you are posting. It's great to know that there is a lot to see in the upper loop. We are packed up and ready to leave early tomorrow morning to spend the week up there. We'll travel up through the Tetons to give it one more try to see 399 and fa...

Saturday we entered the park at Moran entrance and in less than a minute we had our first bear jam beside the first bridge. A lady told us it was 399's 14 year old daughter and her 2 yearlings. A little further down the road at Pilgrim Creek there was a single boar farther out in the meadow leisurel...

Max, I’ve been wondering when you and your trip reports would show up again. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one, especially your philosophical thoughts. I understand the hesitation to share locations or join in with a large crowd. We can all set the example by doing the right thing ourselves and ...

<t>After a long rest and a leisurely breakfast we decided to go to Grand Prismatic Spring. But the Bison had other plans for us. Shortly after leaving the Madison campground area we came upon a Bison jam. We waited for about a half hour with no real progress and decided to bail out. We headed back t...

It's official...We outsmarted the wolves! We left our room in Gardner by 4:30 and arrived an hour later. We only waited about 45 minutes until someone anxiously announced "They're coming"! They had been seen about 5 miles to the east and we watched them come in through the sagebrush. A black and a g...

Yesterday we were told that Dunraven will open at 8:00 today. No such luck. With the overnight snow it was still closed but may be open later in the day. Off we go through the road construction to explore Hayden valley. We saw a coyote trotting on 3 legs because of a front leg injury. But it didn't ...

We have eagerly read theses reports in anticipation of our own trip and today it began! We left northern Utah at 5:00 am and battled high winds all the way to Idaho, then it was nothing but blue sky and sunshine, until we got to West Yellowstone. Cloudy skies and the threat of rain! We were pleasant...

Sunday 5-27 Just as we were coming down from the top of Mt Washburn there was a coyote standing in the road. It walked to the side and continued on it’s journey trotting on top of the snow bank. We wondered if this was it’s regular hangout for the Sunday Brunch Roadkill Buffet. Beautiful scenery all...

This happened to me as well, Saturday evening. I thought it was just me doing something wrong.
