Pictures Yellowstone National Park 6/26/2011



Gibbon Falls near the west entrance to the park. Marilyn and I noticed how out of breath we were with the short walk to the falls. We are both out of shape but this was terrible. Then we realized that besides being out of shape we were also at almost 7000 feet elevation. Wheeeew dodged another one

Marilyn spotted these two fishermen.

Old Faithful was unfaithful today we missed the eruption. LOL

Had to stop for this elk to cross the road

These two got into a little fight over grass right after this picture

Here we are


This is a shot to the southeast across Yellowstone Lake

Most of the rivers are flooded they had to close one road in the northeast corner of the park

This is called Dragon's Mouth it belches steam and makes funny noises LOL

This is some of the dried mud in front of the volcano geyser

This is Ranger Harlin.   He is touted as be the most knowledgeable ranger in the park he was funny and knew his stuff.


This is Steamboat Geyser

This is the small vent on the Steamboat Geyser it makes a sound like a steam cylinder

More Steamboat


Where the buffalo roam



This is the upper Canyon Falls
