Another old trip report, from 2008 in pics:

This is a video from a backpacking trip I did the first week of September in Yellowstone National Park. The poster @scatman wrote a trip report for it here: http://backcountrypost.com/threads/wapiti-lake-sour-creek-ynp-august-30-2014.3628/ . We explore the Hot Springs Basin Group area...

This is way overdue but some recent exchanges with hiking friends inspired me to finally sit down and write about this trip last August. Prior to my Thorofare trip I spent a week with @scatman, @Joey and company exploring the Pitchstone and Bechler regions. It was another phenomenal @Scatmen...

This is a three day backpacking trip I did November 8th through 10th, 2014. It was a 21 mile loop in the Gallatin Mountains, located in the NW corner of Yellowstone National Park. It was cold, snowy, and void of people. Camped along Specimen Creek Early Saturday morning, I left Jackson and...

This is a trip report from my visit to Yellowstone National Park last weekend. It details a short, one night backpack to Agate Creek along the Yellowstone River, and also some sights from driving around the park. Last Friday (Halloween) I drove up to Yellowstone after working all day. I...

The weather looked good for the last weekend of the season so I decided to make the trip from Seattle to enjoy one last visit to the park in 2014. My plan was to visit sections of the Howard Eaton trail and to visit with Joey. With one exception, all the sections I planned to visit on this...

This is a 3 day, 2 night backpacking trip I did in Yellowstone National Park. Saturday, October 25th through Monday, October 27th, 2014. I hitchhiked up to the Heart Lake Trailhead, hiked in to Heart Lake, then down to the Snake River, and followed that out to the South Entrance. It was...

This is a 6 day backpacking trip I did earlier this month. I started from the East side of Shoshone Lake, hiked down the Bechler Canyon, visited Mr. Bubbles, Dunanda Falls, Union Falls, and made my way out the South Boundary Trail to the South Entrance of Yellowstone NP. You may need to click...

On August 30th, a group of four of us which included a forum poster @Joey , began an eight day backpacking trip into Yellowstone National Park. We started by hiking into Ribbon Lake on the first night, on the second night we camped at Moss Creek before moving on day three to Wapiti Lake. We...

This report covers a backpacking trip of 71 miles (includes day hikes) completed by a group of six that begins and ends at the Beula Lake Trailhead located on the Grassy Lake Road in the Caribou – Targee National Forest. The loop begins by hiking up to Beula Lake, then off-trail up the...

I had the opportunity last week to spend two nights in the Yellowstone backcountry with my family at an area located within the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone called Sevenmile Hole. In addition to spending the two nights at campsite 4C2, we did a day hike back out of the canyon to Washburn Hot...

I posted this trip report to Backpacker and Yellowstone forums after the trip was completed back in September but had yet to join this forum. My apologies to those who may have seen this write-up before, but I had a request to post here also. Here is the link to my images of the trip. Just...

Well, it's not backpacking or camping, but it IS my very first trip report. As a belated Christmas present, Neiloro and I took a trip to Yellowstone to check out winter in the park. Being unfamiliar with Yellowstone in winter and having very little time to plan, we booked a snowcoach tour...

A couple buddies and I set out for the YNP backcountry a couple weekends ago. Our campsite was one that can be accessed by either a 20 mile boat ride or a 20 mile hike. We chose the boat since our primary goal was finding some big Yellowston Cutts. It was great to sit around a campfire and the...

Since the banner at the top has been calling for some old trip reports. I figured I'd throw one in from 2005. I apologize ahead of time for the font issues. In June of 2005 a few buddies and I went on our yearly pilgrimage to Yellowstone. This time we had decided to turn it into a...

A couple buddies and myself backpacked into YNP in search of Browntown, USA this past weekend. We found it and spent a few days reaping the rewards of timing this trip just right. Big, thick fish were the name of the game all weekend long. There was no shortage of them. Got down into the teens...

I don't want to overwhelm with way too many pictures in one trip report, so I'm breaking out my Yellowstone trip into three seperate posts, one for each day in the park. And of course the first part of this trip was spent in Grand Teton. See all of the trip reports at the links below: Part 1...

This year for our Yellowstone trip we decided to switch things up a bit and do a bikepacking/backpacking trip! There's an old paved road that you can no longer drive that leads to Lone Star Geyser that you can bike. We decided to ride (2.7 miles) in with out packs to the end of this road and...
