View from the top

Part of our LivingSocial package included a lift ticket to the top of Lone Peak, Big Sky, MT. A beautiful morning with an even more beautiful view.

In the words of a fellow tourist...

"this aint no petting zoo". Bison are all over in the park, even on the side of the road relaxing in the sun.

It isn't a trip to Yellowstone without....

eating ice cream while sitting in a rocking chair at Old Faithful.

Yellowstone day 3

I had to take a picture of the crazy, stupid people just feet away from huge buffalo.




Mammoth



Mammoth Hot Springs


We finally saw a few black bears!









The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone

Fishing Bridge



Big Sky, Montana

We stayed in at the Big Sky Resort in Montana for the weekend. Big Sky is probably about a 45 minute drive from West Yellowstone. Not exactly close, but the view is worth it. We got a great LivingSocial deal for 2 nights, which made it even more perfect.

First...hot!

Yellowstone day 2 pt3

Old Faithful & Yellowstone Park




We hadn't been standing at Old Faithful more than 2 minutes when we got the show. Great luck!

a huge geyser. It felt like a really nice sauna!
