DAY 5: YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK

I am always in awe of the geysers, colorful pools, and bubbling mudpots in Yellowstone. Anastasia was intrigued, but Xander thought they were smelly and was much more interested in the wildlife.

“People come from all over the world to see this, you should enjoy it.” – Bruce

FAST FACT:
The thermal activity at Yellowstone was discovered in 1870. Lewis and Clark missed the geyser basin by a mere four miles in 1805.

Owen's parents met there when they were both working in the park as young adults. They even have reunions with other former workers and are working on a historical project about Yellowstone.
