We saw a lot of the contrast between old burn and the follow up growth. Pete and I honeymooned there in 91 so it was cool to see the trees come back. Some of the old burned trees still stand.

Here is a link to our stuff on the Kodak site.. it ain't Bullit worthy but there are some nice pics.

Dang we didn't see any bears at all, and just two moose neither of which were bulls.
Wasn't Grand Prismatic just awesome?
How'd you like the staircase bolted to the cliff wall (my Dad sure didn't haha)

Prismatic was so cool! I loved the interaction with the river.

My knees still ache from that staircase. There was a bear warning posted by the entrance to that as well. Did you go the Grizzly/Wolf discovery center? That's where we got the not scared pics from.

I guess we'll have to try again on the meeses. Where did you see the moose?

No we didn't go to that center, spent most of our time around the geysers, the canyon, and by the Yellowstone river with the bisons.

We saw the meeses in the West Thumb Geyser Basin. You have to be on the look out near dawn and dusk by water to get a shot at seeing them.
