Yellowstone I

The road from Montana into Yellowstone.  On the far right of

this picture is the devil's slide.

This is Gardiner, MT, a small town that rest at the northern entrance

to the park.  Kristin and I went white water rafting here last year.

Right when we entered the park at Mammoth, we saw a bunch of

female elk.  Here are two scurrying away with a couple of classic cars.

These elk commandeered a picnic area in Mammoth.
