Day 55 - Yellowstone National Park

Throughout our second day in this massive park, we went to the Mud Volcano area, Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, Mammoth Springs, and Lake Hotel. We also were able to drive all of its grand loop!

The highlight, if possible to choose, was probably Yellowstone Falls, especially hiking down into the canyon for a magnificent view of the lower falls. It was a strenuous, short hike and well worth it. 

We went to Lake Hotel in the evening after snagging reservations for a nice dinner.

Oh, and we saw tons of wildlife this day.


Big spring! (My name, don't remember the real one)
Dragon's Mouth spring. So cool!
