Jul 31, 2010 - Yellowstone NP

7-31-10 We departed the RVP shortly after 5:00 AM and traveled to Yellowstone NP arriving just before 6:00 AM. The plan was to look for wildlife early in the morning while they were active and before the crowds created too many animal sighting jams. Although we did not do as well as expected, sightings included Pronghorn Antelope, Coyote, Fox, Elk, Trumpeter Swans, Ravens, Bison and many unidentified song birds. Our plan was sound as traffic was not a problem and we had made all of our sightings prior to 9:00 AM. The entire tour was...

Jul 30, 2010 - Another Change of Plans

7-30-10 Today the early morning temperature was 58 degrees but it began to rise rapidly. We departed Sheridan around 8:00, reaching Montana after 23 miles of travel. The landscape is rolling hills covered in grasses with a few cattle observed. We could see the Beartooth Mountain Range to our west during most of our drive today. Our trip took us by the Little Bighorn Battlefield but we did not stop as we visited a couple of years ago and did not feel is was worth a second stop. Norma remarked what a large state Montana was for us to be...

West Coast 2010

Jun 21, 2010 - Base Camp!

The trip from Missoula to our destination at Yellowstone’s Edge RV Park south of Livingston is approximately 250 miles, mostly on Interstate 90. The route crosses the Continental Divide just east of Butte, and then descends to Belgrade and Bozeman before arriving at our “turning point” in Livingston.

The RV Park is located on the Yellowstone River, on a long strip of riverfront property that stretches for over a half mile, so that all of the sites are...

May 26, 2010 - Day 5

Well we are on our leg to Emigrant, Montana. The part of the trip that I have been looking forward to. My cousin Gerri is my most favorite relative. She has come to Tucson since that is where all the family is and if she lived there I would probably be at her house all the time. She is my mother's 1st cousin so I suppose we are second cousins. Any ways, we went the long way around to her place. Rather than going through the park, we went up to Bozeman and then back down to Emigrant. We saw some awesome scenery as well as more mountains...

2010 Montana

Jul 22, 2008 - Leaving Washington heading East to Idaho & Montana

After deciding we wouldn't have time enough to go to Alaska we decided to head East To Yellowstone Natl. Park in Montana.The mountains going thru Idaho into Montana were 7000 ft. for one and 6500 ft for the other one and everyone knows I don't like mountains especially the going down part. But as you can tell I made it over both of them and we are going into Yellowstone tomorrow.The park we are in is at the edge of the park on the Yellowstone river and it is a beautiful park.
