We drove around the lower loop road and saw enough geysers and bubbling pools to satisfy ourselves. Along the way we saw several bison, moose, a coyote who was ambling alongside the road, mule deer, a white pelican, chipmunks and a bunch of young elk. Later we came upon hundreds of bison grazing along the road. They caused a huge traffic jam and it was very exciting to watch them from our cars as they are very dangerous and can run up to 30mph.
Took some photos at Yellowstone Lake and saw many acres of burned forest. The park service lets the fires burn themselves out as it is the natural way. The dead trees are on the ground for many years as the new grasses, shrubs and young pines begin to grow.
We stopped at the Lake House restaurant for a delightful dinner. I had grilled trout which was delicious in a rustic lodge setting.
