As Tim would say, "Yellowstone National Park is the best National Park in the country" ...we are a little biased. Tim's Mom, Lisa, is a Geologist for Yellowstone so he spent his life traveling to YNP since he was a child.

There is a ton to see and do including: visiting awesome geologic features, witnessing wild life including bears, bison, fox, wolves and elk, fly fishing and hiking.

Some favorite places: Old Faithful, Grand Prismatic, Yellowstone Lake, The Firehole River, Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, to name a few. There is great hiking and fly fishing locations throughout the park - let us know if you would like suggestions!

We LOVE floating down the Yellowstone River! Every time we go to Chico Hot Springs we make sure to fit in a floating trip.

There is a great place to put in 5 minutes from Chico called "Emigrant" that will take you on a 2-3 hour float down the Yellowstone. There are different raft options - single and double. Rubber Ducky employees are very helpful so be sure to give them a call if you are interested.

We make sure to pack some of our favorite local beers, too!

GREAT PLACE TO EAT! We love the fish tacos.

Right down the street from Chico Hot Springs if you want to experience food outside of the restaurants on site.

Chico has many activities on site including: bike riding. horseback riding, lounging in the pool and ordering drinks from the saloon, music at the saloon, and playing games - visit their website to see more!

If you are driving up from Denver or planning to stay a few extra days - Jackson Hole and Teton National Park is far, but not too far, away. It is Molly's favorite National Park!
