For all the right reasons, that is. I was rather pleased when my clients voted to skip Old Faithful and the thermals on our final ...

Today was my last free day before packing up to go fetch tour clients. I intended to spend only a half day in the park, and that’s all I got. Bu...

Re: Winter 2020 Trip Report, Days 0-5 (Jan 11-16)

Dorothy, thanks.

Rick, supposedly people have seen this one on and off in recent weeks (or they’ve seen a badger, at least). First winter one for me, and the last time I remember folks getting prolonged photo ops with one in winter was two years ago. It’s definitely an uncommon sight.

Re: Winter 2020 Trip Report, Days 0-1 (Jan 11-12)

Linda, people were saying it’s the Wapitis. I did not see the alpha female. I counted at thirteen... a dozen that went up over the hill and a gray that lingered behind. Not sure if the black that was there later was part of the first group or not, so there may have been as many as fourteen that I sa...

Re: Your Best of 2019

I had three Yellowstone images make the cut this year. I'm going with this one as my favorite moment of the three, mainly because I had never seen these two species interacting before. It also helped the fawns were only a couple hours old, and I got to share the moment with my clients. http://www.ma...
