[singlepic id=1785 w=640] The view descending Mt. Washburn – somewhere along that ridge we had to break right and cross the snow which was the most adventurous part of the hike, particularly around the edges where we’d occasionally just drop through. Fortunately, we didn’t step on any any marmot burrows… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1781 w=640] The view from atop Mt. Washburn – it was a rather pretty day to be up there. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 18-135mm lens @ 18mm, 1/640 shutter, f/11, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1780 w=480 float=left] One of the black bears we saw in Yellowstone. Looking back on these pictures, I wish I had a better camera (actually, better lens would have been preferable) and had shot them all as RAW files. There was probably a quarter million dollars in lenses* standing… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1284 w=480 float=left] Sticking with the animal theme for one more picture, this is one of the better shots I got of a bear while in Yellowstone, even though it’s a black bear and not the more impressive Grizzly. Hung around watching this one forage for about an hour… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1283 w=480 float=left] This is the closest shot I got of a coyote in Yellowstone. I don’t know why we turned off into the picnic area where we found this guy, but we just happened to be scrounging around for food. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF 70-300mm @… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1282 w=480 float=left] Looking up at the Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone – kind of the opposite view of the previous tree picture. Had to climb on the railing to get high enough to just barely see into the pool in the middle there. Picture taken with Canon 60D,… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1281 w=480 float=left] Looking out over the largest portion of Mammoth Hot Springs. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 17-85mm lens @ 44mm, multiple shutter, f/16, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1280 w=480 float=left] This was the largest herd of bison we saw when in Yellowtone and the most that I have recorded in a single picture. Taken just outside of Mammoth Hot Springs. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 17-85mm lens @ 50mm, 1/30 sec, f/11, ISO 100
We woke up and took some time to pack up camp as this was move-out day. We were basically just going to head out the Northeast entrance to the park stopping for whatever we found along the way. First find, ignoring the road side bison that we shot some pics… Continue reading
We started out the day with the plan to go see Yellowstone Falls and Artist’s Point (#3). The ranger told us that there was 6ft of snow on the trail, but we figured he was just being cautious and we’d go regardless, like we had in the Tetons. On our… Continue reading
