Day 18 Missoula - West Yellowstone, Montana
... figuring out distances to stuff I wanted to do and tons of them were right outside of the park but yet still over 90 minutes drive!! Assuming I did my calculating and checking right, I should be in reasonable distance to Old Faithful and a cool hiking trail.
I would have loved to go horseback riding again while here but that's something that needs to be arranged ahead of time I think (based on a bit of checking online I ...
Safari Time!
... a beautiful black bear paddling in the river. She got out, climbed onto a rock and shook herself off and we could see that she was the most gorgeous chocolate brown colour, with lighter patches on her face. We could see her really clearly, but unfortunately we didn't get very good shots of her as we weren't able to get off the van and the others in with us were blocking our cameras...you'll just have to trust us that she was lush. Especially for Gemma and Shellie, I called ...
Recipe for Beans!
... twisty drive in another direction and eventually ended up at the Roosevelt Lodge, where we had lunch. That's where I had the Roosevelt beans, which were really good. The lodge was built a long time ago and is made out of logs. It's a place where people take horseback and donkey trips into the country. After lunch we drove into the Lamar valley where there were herds ...
Old Faithful and Fishing Bridge

After lunch, we started working our way toward Yellowstone Lake which was probably 50 miles from Old Faithful. YNP is huge and there is no quick way to get from place to place. It took us all afternoon to get to our campsite on ...

TravelPod Member ReviewsYellowstone Park Hotel West Yellowstone
Junior suite with king and hide-a-bed. Room had a fridge, microwave, and Vizio HDTV. TV was in front of the King, and strangely could not be turned to face the couch at all. Pool was VERY warm. Pancake machine at breakfast was a big hit with the kids (and better than the usual waffle machines, IMO). WALLS ARE PAPER THIN. We could hear our neighbors not making any attempt to be quiet. Could hear their TV in the middle of the night, and were woken up by their alarm in the morning. Friendly staff, though I overheard them making the same recommendations for meals to the people that checked in after me, though I had asked specific questions.
