Mammoth Campground, Yellowstone

It was very gray when I got up and out this morning. The bison carcass in the Lamar had one bear on it and a bunch of photographers:



I went to see if the moose were still there, but no luck, so the rest of the day was at the wolf den and back at camp. We had a few comings and goings, a bison stuck it's head in the opening, only to be met with a yearling wolf rushing out. But, no pups.

On the way back to camp in the evening, I got a good picture of a grizzly. It was only 100 yards from the road in really good light:

May 18, 2019 I'm home.  The weather got cold and wet, as predicted, so I decided I'd seen enough. I'm updating the posts with the videos and I found these.

Saturday, May 11, 2019 Mammoth Campground, Yellowstone I've been trying to get fast enough internet to upload the videos for a few days, now. The best place in town with public internet fast enough is the Pharmacy, but they recently remodeled and don't have their wifi working yet. I'll keep trying, and, will try the hotel I use in winter. Maybe they'll let me buy some time during the day when no guests are there.

Sunday, March 10, 2019 Gardiner, Montana I'm back in Yellowstone for a week, if the weather holds. My general plan each winter is to watch the weather and, when a good week appears, come up here. Early last week, it appeared that this week would be good. By Friday, I had decided I would do it. Saturday morning, I made the hotel reservations in the Super 8 (because it's across from the grocery store) and by 3 pm, I was on the road. I drove half way Saturday evening and arrived here around 1:00 pm. Check-in isn't until 3:00, so I went into the park to see what I could find. Not much. Lots of bison on the roads and the only place they were apparently seeing wolves had no parking left. I did get a picture of a bighorn ram.
