Yellowstone was incredible. There were some road and trail closures and the lake was frozen, but there was still a ton of things to see. Here are a few of my favorites from our first day there.
The trail to the overlook was easy going down, and not as bad as I had feared coming back up.
But the view was worth every step.
E made an observation, "before everyone had a camera phone, how long would they stay at a view?" People just seemed to be more interested in getting their selfies than enjoying the incredible landscape diversity.
Then it was on to the Mammoth Hot Springs Terraces.
I thought this was fascinating. It was like a cave but on top of the ground.
You could find something new from every angle.
I loved all of the little brimstone pools.
And I found a good rock face.
Is it scared or scary?

I have never heard of mammoth hot spring pools - very interesting.
Cool face - seems a bit aggressive more than fearful.
E's observation about selfies seems correct.
