We arrived at our campsite and were met with this sign! Needless to say this brought on a slight feeling of apprehension.....but our campsite host reassured us that indeed, there has been lots of aggressive grizzly behavior this season, but we should not be afraid---just carry bear spray and be careful! Thankfully we had purchased some at Cabella's on our trip out----so we are set!
Oh---wait a minute, found these prints in the mud on my first campground walk! Needless to say, I keep the RV in sight when I loop around!!
Today, we did the Old Faithful Geyser Loop trail and saw some amazing natural wonders! About one third of Yellowstone is sitting on top of a huge super volcano that is still active. This hot magma concentration under the surface causes this large concentration of hydrothermal features in the park. The majority of the world's active geysers are in Yellowstone.
