WYOMING-MONTANA, YELLOWSTONE NATL PARK

We're looking for bears as we start our drive north, but all we see are buffalo and whitewater rivers that you're not allowed to paddle. We have a late breakfast at Gibbon Falls and then stop at the Artist's Paintpots, and then Mammoth Hot Springs.  Parking is a problem, especially for a motor home, but with patience we always find a slot.

We cross into Montana just before we leave the park.  We follow the Yellowstone River, the longest free flowing river in America.  We stop at a wayside to let the dogs swim.  We get on the interstate at Livingston and head west to Bozeman.  We find a Walmart and bed down for the night.
