Yellowstone-Tuesday Morning

Thankful there were no bear sightings in the campground overnight, so everyone was well rested for a busy Tuesday in the park. We wanted to get an earlier start, so it was just muffins, cereal, coffee and juice for breakfast. We headed north again, through Fishing Bridge and onwards towards Canyon.

The first stop of the day was a quick walk through another set of mud paint pots. There were LOTS of buffalo lounging around the hot, steamy thermal areas. We found out later from a ranger that the buffalo would rather be hot then bitten by bugs, so that's why they choose to stay around the thermal features. It was a great first stop of the day: still cool, not crowded, and a good walk to get the blood flowing.
