Private Wolf Watching and Winter Wildlife
Safari

Frost covered bison, snowy mountains, and wolves howling in the distance! Yellowstone is a true winter wonderland. This is a great time of the year to observe wolves, moose, bison, elk, big horn sheep and several other species interacting on this frozen landscape.  Our tour will focus on Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley undoubtedly one of the prime wildlife viewing spots in all of North America

During winter, the Lamar Valley’s resident wolf packs become the most dominate carnivore on the landscape.  Due to deep snowpack at higher elevations they may roam closer to the roadways making the winter months the best time of the year to view wolves safely from a pull out off the side of the road in from our 4×4 suburban. In late winter/ early spring in the Lamar Valley becomes one of the best times of the year to view grizzly bears and wolves interacting/ fighting for control of winter killed carcasses available to be scavenged as the snow begins to melt and the park comes back to life after a long harsh winter.  

Late afternoon after we have satisfies our wildlife viewing bucket list  we will walk the boardwalks of Mammoth Hot Springs. The Geysers, Hot Springs, and other geo-thermal was so overwhelming and fascinating to early park explorers that it was the reason Yellowstone National Park was created in 1872 and became the worlds first National Park! Yellowstone has by far the worlds largest collections of geysers and hot springs. This walk will give use a taste of the exceptional geothermal activity that exists deeper in the parks interior.
