Yellowstone in winter, 2019
We visited Yellowstone National Park in February 2019 on a tour organised and led by the excellent Nick Garbutt, and booked through Wildlife Worldwide. Yellowstone is a truly stunning place and is fascinating for its geological history, its scale, climate, geothermal activity and of course its wildlife. Winter is a wonderful time to visit, although it can be brutally cold. As most roads are closed there are relatively few visitors and although wildlife is not as abundant as during the summer months the sightings can be spectacular. Winters in Yellowstone are harsh and can be unforgiving and it was humbling to learn how wildlife survives in such conditions. We travelled with Yellowstone Expeditions and their organisation was first rate, as was our stay in their Yurt Camp in Canyon Village. Thanks to all our guides (Joe, Alice, Ben-Cheetah, Ben, Monica, Roston and Brian, as well as Connie for her superb cooking at the Yurt Camp.
