We woke up this morning to some new snow on the ground. It was really pretty, all the pine trees just had a little snow on the branches, it could have been a picture postcard.
Today we went to Mammoth Hot Springs. This is a picture of the springs and is called the Palette Spring because of all the different colors. It looks like something that should be in a cave but is not. We saw several small geysers today mostly just steam coming out of the ground but they smell awful. We also saw lots of bison and a couple babies and lots of elk. Some of the elk were right next to the Visitor Center at Mammoth, didn't seem to even notice that there was anyone there!
On our way back to the RV park we took an offrode called Firehole Valley. There were some amazing waterfalls and even a swimming hole but the water was a little cold (about 45 degrees). We spent today with my sister and her husband and their friends and had a great day. Tomorrow we plan to go back into the park to see a couple more things. Today was a great day but we are tired, so it is early to bed tonight!
