Sunday, July 4, Day 59
Off Day at Yellowstone Park


We had no bears overnight but campers next door were enjoying life. We woke up at 6am to find ice all over our tent, flies and 34-degree weather (no rain, thank you). Steve and I put out cloths to dry overnight and they were frozen.
Soooo we dressed warmly and headed to Grant Lodge for breakfast. We then headed by bike, about three miles, to the West Geyser Basin to see the geysers and the hot pools. Luck would have it that a National Park Service ranger named Lauren Muccino (a New York native) was giving the tour. The tour was fantastic and her knowledge of the geyser basis was exceptional.
An hour and a half tour went quickly and ended too soon. We took some pictures of Lauren with Steve and me, and then headed to lunch. We went back to our tent and prepared for the next leg on Monday.
