We decided to hike one of the trails in the park instead of driving from site to site negotiating traffic and crowds. Beaver Ponds Loop was a good choice at 5.4 mile. It started from the terraces at Mammoth Hot Springs and ascended 800 feet through the trees along a creek. Views were offered of the terraces from higher vantage points. The trail emerged into a meadow offering this broad panorama.

Such beautiful country. Any choice that minimizes traffic and crowds is a good one, in my opinion, and your images prove you made a good choice.

What a treat to see these images you’ve shared. I was a child when last in Yellowstone. I’d never be able to walk 5 miles now, so appreciate you posting your’s! 🙂
