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...

I met my wife in 2005 and I asked her to marry me when we went on a trip to Yellowstone in October. So, we figured we might as well go on our honeymoon there because it was cheap and close. We went in September this time. I wanted to stay at a place with a hot tub and there's not much in West...

So, every year my buddies and I head to Yellowstone to do some camping, hiking and lounging around. We also try to explore new parts of the park and hit up new trails. This particular year we decided to stay in West Yellowstone because we didn't want to cook and clean up in the morning and...

9-11 to 9-15 The week after Labor Day weekend some friends and I took headed to Yellowstone for some car camping and fishing! We left Cache Valley Friday morning and drove to Indian Creek campground in the upper west area of the park near Mammoth. We took the more scenic route through Jackson...

This is a long-delayed blog post for our trip to Yellowstone NP. Since this trip we have been extremely busy with coaching football and a new addition to the family (welcoming our new little hiker, Waylon Elijah). Yellowstone was extremely beautiful and definitely lived up to the hype, both...

9-23-2010 to 9-27-2010 Some friends and I decided to do a late season backpacking trip into Yellowstone as we were having such great weather for this time of year. We had decided on a short hike (our camp was less than 4 miles from the trail head) in into the upper Firehole River area. This was...

7-18-2010 to 7-21-2010 I made it back from Yellowstone and I'm glad to be home! The mosquitoes were HORRIBLE!!!! And the fishing wasn't any better. Monday - We drove up to the Park and camped at Grants Village on Yellowstone Lake the first night. We had to pick up our back country permit and...
