Day 34...Still lot more to see in Yellow Stone part A

Today was wonderful. we drove to the north part, to Mammoth Mineral Terraces and then to Tower falls. We saw many Bison herds, sometimes crossing the road, looking at people and sometimes just in the meadows. We also saw many Elk herds as well as other deers and smaller animals and most exciting of all, we saw two black bears just mining their own business . One of them crossed the road just behind our car. Very exciting.


The Terraces were beautiful and very colorful. The minerals in the water as well as the Thermobecterias give them all these colors.






Interesting thing is that the Elk was walking right through the boiling hot water and was drinking it too. I read that it is so cold in the mountain that they come in the thermal areas to warm up.
I am going to post some more pictures in the next blog just because I think they are worth sharing... Good night
