Road Trip - Glacier to Yellowstone

We hit the road early this morning. We stayed up late watching bears on our hotel porch. First a cinnamon colored black bear walked by then a momma black bear and her cub. 

Our first stop on the trip was in Helena, MT where we stopped for lunch at Steve's Cafe. Kasey's order was the best - huckleberry stuffed French toast. 

We arrived at the north entrance to Yellowstone around 5:30 pm and saw elk grazing in the construction area near the hotel. 

We stopped at Mammouth Hot Springs and walked along the boardwalks and climbed to the top of the springs. The sulfur smell was strong but it was such an unusual sight to see so we endured the smell. 

We headed south to Old Faithful but it was almost 8 pm when we arrived. The visitors' center closed at 8 and Old Faithful  wasn't expected to erupt for another hour so we decided to come back another time during our stay. We continued driving to our cabin just south of the south entrance.

We saw bison on the way...

and a beautiful sunset over the lake. 

We finally reached our cabin just after 9pm.
