Yellowstone Road – Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA – Somewhere In Time Weekly Travel Photo.
Somewhere In Time is a weekly photo from around the world. Enjoy!
Although Iceland was our first overseas destination, the big trip actually began in the United States. Last August, we traversed the U.S., driving from San Diego to Massachusetts. On the way we passed through Yellowstone National Park. We spent two nights camping and hanging out with the resident buffalo. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to do much in the way of hiking because we had Chachy with us and you can’t bring dogs on any of the hikes. We did sneak him into one quick hike (he stayed in a bag that we carried) but besides that we spent most of our time was relegated to the car.
Yellowstone’s roaming wildlife, geothermal activity and vast expanses create an area rife for exploration. Even if you don’t have a lot of time to hike around, the road that cuts through Yellowstone provides ample pull offs to enjoy some of the parks most famous attractions.
I took this photo as we were driving out and it’s one of my favorites from our time at Yellowstone.

Pretty photo! I wonder if the reason they don’t allow dogs is because the bears would eat them? :/ Scott and I are going to Yellowstone in 3 days!! Woohoo!

Oh fun! It was great and I’m sure you guys will have a lot of fun! I found out the reason they don’t allow dogs on any NP trails is because the dogs will mark it with their scent and that will screw up the
native wildlife and probably bring on pissing wars… Sooo… Can’t argue with it too much I guess but it seems like they should do something since a lot of people camp and bring their pets. Have fun!! @Christy @ Ordinary Traveler,

It seems as if you took this photo while your cam is slowly panning.

Yes, I guess technically you’d be right! I was in the car so we were moving and I was shooting out the window but the subject weren’t moving and we were moving pretty quickly in the car.. Thanks for commenting! @checnoweth@gmail.com,

Looks all misty and mysterious – very appealing. You should do their advertising photography!
