Max's Full Fall 2018 Trip Report (Sept. 23 - 28)
Posted: Mon Sep 24, 2018 10:14 pm
As always, I'll share excerpts from my Yellowstone trip report in this thread. Check back for updates every couple days, with links to the full posts and more images.
September 23, 2018
I’m leading an extended tour this week in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. I purposely limited this trip to a smaller group, and looks like it’s going to be a fun week.
We began at a normal time Sunday morning, heading for the northeast as the sky slowly brightened. Elk grazed in the darkness at Mammoth as we drove through. There weren’t many reasons to stop as we made it all the way to Petrified Tree, so I finally pulled over for a lonely bison bull in order to let my clients stretch their shutter fingers a bit. Things picked up after that.
One of our other early stops was for a landscape opportunity, as we honed in on the changing aspens. Some already sported orange leaves.
And yes, we caused a leaf jam.
Read the full report from Days 1 & 2 and see more photos in the blog.
