Yellowstone and Teton trip (pic heavy)

Post by mr tibbs »

Last week the wife and I took a week vacation to Yellowstone and Yosemite National Parks. The first five nights we spent camping in Yellowstone and sleeping in the back of Stoffel (my 1989 HJ61). I had my concerns about spending that many nights camping, but everything went AWESOME!! The rig was comfortable and ran great, we showered every other day at the Old Faithful Lodge, and the wife was a champ camping that long! In the park we did some sightseeing, some hiking, and a lot of driving around enjoying the scenery. Here are some pics:

Did we see any wildlife? You bet!!

These guys came strolling right through the campground like they owned the place!

I even stalked this guy until he stopped so I could admire his 70 series rig! He and his wife were from Germany visiting. Cool rig!

The next couple of nights we spent in a posh hotel in Teton Village just outside of the national park. After camping for five nights and using public showers it was a nice change of pace. The Tetons are incredible!! It's pretty damn tough to take a bad pic in that park!

What do you know, the sign was right!!

It was a great trip with a few minor issues with the rig that we were able to handle. We had a great time and wouldn't hesitate to do it again! There are a ton more pics found here: https://mrtibbs2004.smugmug.com/Travel/ ... Teton-2015

Thanks for looking!

looks like a good time. Glad to hear the buffalo didn't get ya as they seem to be winning the war vs humans this year from what I have been reading.

It was pretty amazing how many people we saw approach the wildlife. And it wasn't just the out of country folks, plenty of US license plates pulled off on the side of the road walking towards the buffalo and elk. Idiots all around!

as I said that I had the memory of when we took a trip out to the badlands with my grandparents. I can remember now my grandfather trying to get as close as he could to some buffalo we came cross back in the 80s.

awesome pics Casey!! that is my favorite place on the planet!
i agree with the retards, i remember the last time i was there we saw probably 40 people running up the side of the mountain, so we asked a guy what the deal was, he said oh there is a momma bear and her cubs just up at the top, and he raced off up the hill with his camera :doh:
