SATURDAY JUNE 29th
This was day four for us in the park, but day one for Barry, Divana and Em. So we did a little of everything today!
First up was to see if we could spot that grizzly bear and cub again-and we did! We drove down to the Fishing Bridge area and over by Crested Butte they were out running around again. Here's a video!
We sat and watched them for probably 20 minutes or so before they ran up over the hill.
Spotted a bald eagle by the lake.
Then we stopped at the canyon area to walk around and check out those beautiful views.
We went back to hotel to relax for a while. Our days had been absolutely jam packed up to this point so it was nice to relax for an hour or so. We went to have lunch at the cafeteria type place that we could walk to and looked around in the gift shops a bit.
After our relaxation time we decided to go ahead and do the upper loop with them since they hadn't been able to see everything yet. We stopped at the places we'd been to before and saw a bunch of animals so that was awesome!
If you squint you can see two bears in this photo :)
Here's a zoomed in picture taken with my good camera.
We went along the loop counter-clockwise, stopping in Mammoth for some ice cream.
After we ate dinner our family went out to go see Hayden Valley one last time at night. On the way Ike spotted a cinnamon brown bear and ended up causing quite a traffic jam because of it! He was the first to notice and after we stopped so did everyone else.
The skies were incredibly beautiful.
Sad to leave Yellowstone behind the next day but we were very excited to spend a couple days in the Tetons!
