Description

Spring in Yellowstone National Park is a time full of wonders. The bears are waking up, the snow is slowly melting and many areas that were inaccessible during the winter are now open. Old Faithful and other geothermal areas of Yellowstone are what drew early explorers to the Yellowstone area, and we will focus on the unique geology of the park. Additionally, we will also visit the canyon area which hosts breathtaking waterfalls and vistas. Many animals are migrating through the park and the cooler temperatures provide great wildlife viewing. We will also do off the beaten path walks depending on the snow level. *Animals roam the park freely; we cannot guarantee you will see every animal on the list.
