This place is incredible. As one of the top 5 most visited National Parks, I wasn't expecting anything less, but I was not prepared for the sheer vastness and diversity of the land and wildlife. Yellowstone is huge. It's borders stretch from Wyoming, up through Montana and west into Idaho. I spent the weekend traveling with my dad and uncle, trying to to see as much as we could in the short time we had. There never seems to be enough time when adventuring.
(I don't think it helps that I spend 10x's longer taking photos).
Sunlight in the West is hard to beat, whether it's lighting up the entire sky or clinging to the tops of mountains.
What are these photos about?
Thousands of wild buffalo roam their way through the park and are an amazing sight to see. It's a sad thought contemplating the loss of these magnificent creatures, when tens of millions once stretched out across the Great Plains.
ABOVE: the last two images above are my personal favorites from the trip.
