We arrived at Yellowstone at 7 AM and explored its geysers, hot springs, and wildlife. Old Faithful was a highlight, and lunch at the lodge was delicious. The only downside? The sulfur smell in some areas. Unforgettable trip!

Beautiful river. Next to no access. Have to have a state permit to utilize accesses.
