We are going to stay there this year!

Yes!! I can’t believe I forgot to put that on there, because we’ve seen some massive elk there before as well. :)

Happy to hear! Tell us more about your trip!

We hope you have a fantastic trip. If you like our stuff, we will have an itinerary and audio guide ready for next year, so subscribe and we’ll let you know when it’s ready!

Thanks Don!! Hope you have a great trip. You’ll love it in September.

I’m taking notes too! Mid Sept for me !

We’ve given you a shout out in a future video Shirley! It will be about what to pack for Yellowstone, so keep an eye out. :)

Good ! It’s hard to pack when it’s 95 degrees here in NC!

Hope you enjoy it!

Yes!! You’re right! Thank you for contributing.

Try the petrified tree area or better yet take a horse ride from Roosevelt lodge

You’re welcome! Thanks for watching. Have a fantastic trip. :)

Thanks for watching!

@@WereintheRockies Just got back from our trip. My friend and I were in the park from sunrise until dark every night. I shot some great pics and we had the best time. Your many videos were a terrific help.

We are so glad to hear!! We are thinking about doing a “celebrate your trip” video where we show off some of the best pics and videos of people who watched our channel and visited. What do you think about that idea?

Yellowstone doesn't have certain spots that are famous for photographers (to my knowledge) like Teton does. Lamar Valley and Hayden Valley are big spots due to the wildlife, and the Grand Canyon is certainly photogenic. The Grand Prismatic Spring overlook is a must as well!

My pleasure!

Wonderful!! We will cross the border in 2022 as well!

@@WereintheRockies well we will welcome you to Canada ....where are you travelling too?

To Waterton Lakes. Just across the border. One day I’ll make it to Banff

@@WereintheRockies yes we went to Banff this past summer ..... make sure you head up the ice parkway to Jasper ... gorgeous country

Definitely! Thank you

Alot depends on the time of year, since many animals migrate in and out of Yellowstone. See the NPS site for more information: www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/viewanim.htm

Binoculars are fine for most situations. For Wolves 🐺 you typically need a scope. You can rent it from the general store in Cooke city. Would you like me to do a video about how to spot wolves? Also, see our packing list for some recommendations wereintherockies.com/the-ultimate-packing-guide-for-yellowstone-grand-teton/

@@WereintheRockies yes a video about wolves would be great. Plus a video what magnification binoculars and spotting scope to bring. I have a 7x42 Nikon binocular and a 27x Nikon ED50 spotting scope. But I’m concerned they might not be enough power

@@donh1572 i didnt see wolves in Yellowstone but i saw 2 in grand teton! They were incredible

Wow, that’s pretty rare. Cool!

Cody is pretty far away. It takes an hour just to get to the entrance, and then another 40 min just to get to the main loop. And then if you go all the way round the lower loop, that takes about 2-2.5 hrs driving time (that doesn’t count seeing the sights). It sounds like an amazing town though. We are posting another video about places to stay in and around Yellowstone very soon. One thing you could do is stay in Cody, then drive into the park and see it, and then leave out of the west side and stay in West Yellowstone. However, there are plenty of people who stay in Cody the whole time. It just sounds like too much driving to me.

The chief Joseph highway from Cody to Cooke city is awesome you could also head for the beartooth from cooke

HI Karyn, sorry, we were out of town. This is a great question. Hayden Valley does not have a parking lot. However, there are multiple places you can pull off to the side to get out and take pictures. And if there are animals out and about, cars will often be lined up on the side of the road. So yes, you can park, get out, and walk to a field area.

@@WereintheRockies Thanks so much for taking the time to answer my question. I appreciate it!

Correct... Norris.

Bill, great question. I haven’t seen an otter in Yellowstone that I remember (I saw a Beaver in Grand Teton this year). I think they are more common to see in the winter. You can also see them at the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone!!

@@WereintheRockies we have seen otters at fishing bridge along with beaver also, also try trout lake. To me number 1 place to see wildlife is lamar though Hayden is also good. To see wolves and grizzlies you need to get up around 4 am and head to Lamar, lots of wolf people out there.
