John and I got the chance to take our camper down to Yellowstone Park last weekend for 3 days. We really lucked out on both the weather, and the lack of mosquitos. We saw one male grizzly (near the campground) twice, as well as lots of elk and bison. We were joined for two nights by friends Ed & Diane. John caught some nice trout on the Firehole River, plus he and Ed got stuck in a bison traffic jam on their way back to the campground. Only in Yellowstone! A hike into Shoshone Lake was a highlight, especially considering that when we got to the lake, there was no one else around. When you leave the roads and tourist stops behind, you really can find solitude.
