Our Fourth Day: Catching Everything We Missed

This was our last day in Yellowstone. But we still had some things that we needed to see before we left. So, we headed to Firehole Lake Drive.

Our next stop was Midway Geyser Basin. We had been wanting to go here since day one, but just never got to it. I'm really glad we made it.

Grand Prismatic Spring

Excelsior Geyser

We went back to see Old Faithful again. There was a whole geyser basin behind Old Faithful that we didn't see on our first day, so went to see it. We're glad we did or else we would have missed seeing Lion Geyser going off. It only goes off every 6 hours to 4 days, and it goes off in a series with the first one being the highest and longest. We got to see the first one of the series and it lasted for over 8 minutes and went up 90 feet.

Another geyser going off.

This spring was cool because you could see the rock overhanging the pool.

It was time to start heading home. We were a little disappointed that we hadn't seen a moose, but on our way back we did see some big brown animal down in the river. We turned around hoping it would be a moose, but it just ended up being more elk. Oh well. It was fun to take a few last pictures before we left.

It was so cute to see them form into a straight line to cross the river.

That was our trip to Yellowstone National Park. We'll have to come back again since we had so much fun and would love to go do more things up in Yellowstone. All in all it was a great place to get away, have fun, and celebrate one great year together.
