There was nothing hot about Mammoth Hot Springs last night. We all huddled together to stay warm. Fernie got under the covers and layed on Lauren trying to stay warm.
The sun was shining and it warmed up quickly. We had a beautiful day with the temperatures in the 70's. We are going to miss this wonderful weather when we head further South starting tomorrow.
We enjoyed our walk at the Norris Geyser Basin. We stopped at Gibbon River and had lunch.
We went to Old Faithful three years ago and decided that we wanted to go back. There was so much traffic today, that we never found a parking spot. We decided we had already been there and done that and left. We are spoiled and easily tire around a bunch of tourist.
We took a ride through Firehole Canyon. It was beautiful, but again there was too much traffic and people for us.
We enjoyed the views of Gibbon Falls on the way back to camp.
After we got back, we hiked to the Gardiner River across from the campground. The trail was strenously up the hill and harzardous down the slippery rocky trail. We are relieved that we made it to the river and back without injury.
We have enjoyed our 2nd visit to Yellowstone. The views, the geysers, the waterfalls, and the wildlife are what makes this place special to us.
The fitbit count for today is 5 miles and 49 flights of stairs.
We grilled sausage on the fire pit tonight. This will probably be our last campfire this summer.
We hear the Lawn Fairy has struck again. Thanks again, Lawn Fairy!!
