Wendell takes in the beauty of Yellowstone's scenery
The grandeur of Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park
Breathtaking scenery
- Mountains, mountains and more mountains
- Over 500 geysers, including the West Thumb Geyser Basin
- Spectacular views along Chief Joseph Scenic Highway
Abundant wildlife
- Bison, bison and more bison
- Bighorn sheep
- Various other critters on the area's food chain
Rich history
- The flight of the Nez Perce natives
- Bridging Yellowstone's Golden Gate
- Before sitting down to dinner, Mae Dean and Wendell enjoyed a gunslingin' shootout drama performed outside the restaurant by some colorful Wild West characters

Not all these photos were taken in Yellowstone (the park), but they were all taken during that same time period. There was a spectacular drive from Cody to the park, and the period dressed people were involved in a shoot-out drama on the street in Cody and came into the same restaurant where we were dining.
ReplyDeleteThanks for adding the NatGeo video. Both the wolf story and mention of only 4,000 bison are testaments to how controlled its wildlife populations are. And with 2012 approaching, I suspect we'll begin hearing more Armageddonish concerns about a Yellowstone eruption.
