The Taupo contingent left our hotel at 6am, determined not to miss a beat - apparently the best things happen early. That said, having been through the park during our last visit in 2017, Linda decided to opt out in favour of checking out the delights of the small tourist town of Yellowstone West so I enjoyed flying solo. Looking at her photo of the treats available in town it was just as well I was not around! Half an hour into the park, this big fella caused a bit of a traffic jam - whilst not unusual, most bison prefer to keep a bit closer to the horizon. There is absolutely no doubt that if he decided to, he could have turned my 4th July upside down very quickly. As the day progressed, the groups of bison got bigger, from tens to hundreds - very cool. Being a very important Public Holiday there were a lot of people about, and as is my way, I tended to ignore anywhere busy, instead keeping on the move Anyone interested in Yellowstone will probably already have a good idea of the vastness, the magnificence and the variety of landscapes not to forget the wildlife. I have plagiarised a few of the photos taken by other more enthusiastic members of the group
