What the day feels like
What it feels like to travel with a step-on guide
A day with a step-on guide is a mobile lecture hall and photo studio: the specialist climbs aboard, rides along as you drive Yellowstone’s road corridors, steps off at key pullouts to deliver concise interpretation, and keeps watch for wildlife and features the driver might otherwise pass by.
