Yellowstone Camping Photo Dump

This August, my boyfriend Jason drove to meet me in Lander, Wyoming after my NOLS backpacking course. After making a few scenic stops along the way, we drove to Yellowstone National Park. This was our first time ever visiting Yellowstone, and we completely lucked out with a beautiful campsite perched above Yellowstone Lake. During our 4 day stay, we visited the park’s many geothermal features; geysers, hot springs, and travertine terraces, as well as a “Grand Canyon”, a few waterfalls, and many rivers— a few in which I tested out my newly learned fly-fishing skills.

Some of these photos were shot on film, some others were not.

Obligatory visit to Old Faithful. A lot of hype, and a whole lot of people not distancing during covid-19.

Grand Prismatic Spring. This massive hot spring is as vibrant in person as it is in photos!

I love the turquoise color of this hot spring pool next to the Grand Prismatic Spring.

Visiting the various sights at Yellowstone unfortunately requires a lot of time in the car. But at least I had these new Yellowstone socks from the gift shop.

I caught a fish! A very. small. fish.
