Year in Review: Yellowstone

In May Margaret, Jean and I revisited Yellowstone National Park.


The Druid Peak wolves were back on their ancestral territory in the Lamar Valley. We saw the pack nearly everyday during our visit.


As a result, most of the elk, sheep and mule deer remained vigilant when grazing in the valley.


However, this young moose had a different strategy choosing the safety of a back-yard salt-like in Cooke City.


Did I mention that we also saw a lot of bears? Fortunately, not the one that made this track on the trail we were hiking.
