We pulled into our small and extremely un-level site. We had the camper to high up on blocks it looked like we were doing a wheelie. We visited Fishing Bridge visitor center and got some recommendations on some things to do. We headed over to the Mud Volcanoes first. Once you get past the smell its amazing. We saw so many buffalo on the ride. One looked like it got stung by something because it took off running and then it rolled in the dirt. While we were walking down the boardwalk a buffalo went right over the boardwalk in front of us. We also saw a bull elk and 3 mule deer crossed the road in front of us.

On the second day we went to the old faithful area including the Upper Geyser, Black Sand, and Biscuit Basin. They were all so amazing. We saw Grand Geyser go off once with 3 separate bursts. It was very cool. It only erupts every 12 hours! we also saw Sawmill Geyser, Tardy Geyser, and Anemone Geyser erupt. We also went to Upper and Lower Yellowstone Falls. we went to Artist Paint pots and did the South Rim Drive.

On the third day we went to Mammoth Hot Springs. We stopped for lunch at a picnic area. Mammoth Hot Springs were awesome. The water is so clear and hot! We went to Fire hole Canyon Drive, Fountain Flat Drive, and Fire hole Lake Drive on our way to fountain Paint Pots.

On our last day we hike a 41/2 mile hike on Pelican Valley Trail. We were in total bear, bison, and wolf territory. We saw several bison on the trail but they were far away. We then walked on a sandbar for 1/2 a mile. After dinner we went out to look for wildlife. We drove the North West drive. we saw a bison go across the Canyon Bridge. On the way to the RV we saw a wolf!
