Yellowstone - April 28, 2019

Brrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!

Stupid weather!!  Might not have been so bad but that WIND!!  And it snowed.  Icy in lots of places. A vehicle had gone off the road in Island Park - Just past Mack's Inn.  The tow trucks were there - we couldn't see what they were doing until we got past and looked back and could see DOWN the side of the road.  No idea if people had been hurt - we hadn't met any ambulances so ??  And then in Yellowstone Don would hit a patch of ice and the back end of the truck would go a little sideways.  Shady spots were especially bad!

But we survived!!  Good thing we had the road to watch because we didn't have alot of luck with the animals.  >sigh<  I had only taken 75 photos by 2:05 when we finally came upon a Bear Jam at Roaring Mountain as we were heading for home.

We parked and hurried down the road - but mostly got Butt Shots as the Grizzly hurried away from us.  


We turned around and went back a ways in hopes he would quickly appear further down the road but all we got was COLD so we hopped back in the truck - turned the heat on HIGH - and went in search of a (bathroom).  

When we got back he was in great view and still moving north.   

Here he comes!!


Had to wait just a bit and he was in front of us.









We were cold enough to call it quits and headed for the warmth of the truck.  This is my last shot of him.


One more trip to go and then we come back for our vacation!!  Can't wait.
Thanks for looking!
Cindy
