Of Geysers & Waterfalls – Day 6: Fairy Falls, Black Sand Basin, and Upper Geyser Basin

The Adventuring Heidi

Day 6 - August 27, 2020 The day of hydrothermal madness. The day I'd see something like 25% of the world's geysers in a one square mile area, and the world's largest concentration of hot springs.

It got stormy overnight, and I was awaken… Continue reading Of Geysers & Waterfalls – Day 6: Fairy Falls, Black Sand Basin, and Upper Geyser Basin

Day 2 - August 23, 2020 Because I was unable to change my camping reservations on short notice in Yellowstone, I decided to kick it around the Dubois area for a day before heading into the park.

Day 1 - August 22, 2020 Ever wake up on the morning of a grand adventure, so darn excited?! That was me. Though I didn't need to get an early morning start, I was still filled with anticipation. My grand 2020 adventure would take me to corners of Wyoming I had not visited in 29… Continue reading Of Geysers & Waterfalls – Day 1: Popo Agie Falls
