We took the Seven Mile Hole Trail, which is an 11-mile roundtrip trail that begins along the rim of the Yellowstone canyon and ends with a descent into the canyon, where some of the backcountry camping sites are located, along the Yellowstone River.
We did not make it very far before I realized my pants were falling down. >:( Makeshift suspenders!
This is a wee squirrel who hates me. He barked at me to go home. For a really long time. It hurt my feelings...
The trail leads into a pine forest and then.... presto-change-o, meadow-o! Ate our lunches here.
Activity No. 2: The Mud Volcano
More geothermal stuff... the vapors are mostly hydrogen sulfide (stinky), carbon dioxide, and steam...
Activity No. 3: Yellowstone Lake
Twenty miles long, fourteen miles wide... And lots of geothermal vents and activity way down at the bottom. You're not supposed to swim, though, because it is very, very cold and they don't want you to die of hypothermia.
We are very busy taking pictures of each other taking pictures of each other.
