Best Western Yellowstone Inn Livingston

... Nic Decided that he was gonna go straight anyways he claim the car in front did it too, at least thats what he decided to tell the cop when we got pulled over. Nic was he's charming self and talked himself out of a ticket and into getting the directions. He was hoping for a police escort, but we all know he's not that charming ;) <br><br>The museum was Awesome! We saw Tons of Dinosaur ...

... and the Porcelain Basin. We saw several buffalo in the fields and on the road today. We stopped at Roaring Mountain which still has steam rolling out of vents along its side. The last few miles as we approached Mammoth Hot Spring were spectacular with several switchbacks around the cliffs and mountains. At the bottom were the Hot Springs that formed a series of falls down a hill. <br><br>As our time in Yellowstone came to an end we drove north into Montana and stayed in Bozeman at the WalMart.

We were a day early getting to our reserved spot at the Yellowstone North entrance so this site was recommended to us. It was a nice relaxing park right by the Yellowstone River. The river is swift flowing and not very deep. It seems like most of the people here flyfish and the current moves them swiftly north and I am not quite sure how they get back it seems like a heck of alot of rowing.<br><br>Didn't do much today but relax.

... of an abundance of fresh huckleberries and flathead cherries being sold at roadside stands), the National Bison Range (home to the remaining 350-500 wild buffalo that once roamed the west in a herd of 35 million plus), Missoula (home to the University of Montana), Beavertail Hill State Park (directly situated on the Clark River where we camped overnight), Butte ...

... was a bonus too.<br><br>Coming out of Yellowstone at about 5 pm today the weather deteriorated further, and we eventually arrived in Livingston in thick snow, which did not look like abating. If it had, we wouldn't have booked into the first (and may we both say, crappiest) motel we have come across to date. Cheap and with the internet, but that is about all you can say for it. Not sure if we will be warm enuff tonight, but ...

From Rapid City and Mt. Rushmore, we headed west along the I 90 and the weather was rather gloomy. We spent a night at one of the Billings' WalMarts, then a night in Livingston and drove from there into Yellowstone National Park. <br><br>Unfortunately, the weather got worse as we got close to Yellowstone. Almost our ...

... restaurant. But a brainstorm changed our minds. It occurred to Jeff that we were really not far from Yellowstone National Park and the Boiling River Hot Springs near the northern border. We had been near those springs twice before, but both times were in the spring and the sitting pools were washed out. We finally were here at the right time of the year! So we headed off to sit under the hot waterfalls. The Boiling River Hot Springs are ...

... Teton park was not crowded, so we traveled about 100 miles north to Yellowstone expecting the same. Definitely wrong. We arrived at a central camp ground only to find that there was one site remaining, out of 400 sites altogether. All the rigs were bumper to bumper, so we barely got out the trailer, and left early the next day to find a more remote site, complete with privacy, very hot weather, large black horseflies and mosquitoes. One night we traveled to Cooke City, MT ...

Day 36 Today we woke up at 8:00, and had left the Glacier NP campsite by 8:20, stopping for breakfast on the road at a store supermarket with a bakery. We drove for a good portion of the day across the state of Montana. It was by definition, strictly a "drive day", and we were on the road putting in ...
