Glacier, Grand Teton, and Yellowstone National Parks ~ September 12, 2018

We left Jackson and drove north on Route 191, making several stops along the way to photograph the Teton Mountain Range.

We continued north on Route 191 and into Yellowstone National Park. Along the way to the Upper Geyser Basin, we pulled over to check out Lewis Falls.

Eventually, we arrived at the Upper Geyser Basin where "Old Faithful" is located. The boardwalks and trails led us around to many of the geysers and pools. We went out the eastern leg of the loop and returned on the western side of the basin.

Grotto Geyser erupted as we started back.

The wait for Daisy Geyser to erupt over 60 feet was well worth it. For size perspective, note the two people to the left of it.

The trail parallels the Firehole River.

We left the Upper Geyser Basin and headed back south towards the Deer Lodge in Grant Village where we would spend the next two nights. Along the way, we stopped to see the Kepler Cascades.
