    Lewis & Clark Caverns - Bison burger

    My friend Laura and I had the best time here today. She's lived here for like 15 years and had…read morenever been nor had I. Our tour guide was Christopher and he was just the BEST. He had an amazing knowledge of the caves and their history. We also enjoyed the gift shop and the restaurant after. We were starving from our cave exploration so the Bison burger hit just right!! Yum! We both expressed that we think our kids would also love the caves!! This is a gorgeous hour drive from Bozeman that I also thoroughly enjoyed.

    I had no idea what to expect when I was on a road trip and my travel partner had booked us a tour…read moreof the Lewis and Clark Caverns. I knew I was in for a hike, but that's about all I knew. I was absolutely blown away with this magnificent experience! We hiked about a mile up to the cavern entrance. It was a steady incline and almost all in the sun, so come prepared for that. Sunscreen and a water bottle would be wise. By the time you get to the top, you're pretty toasty warm-and then you can cool off in the cold, dark cave. The cave/cavern (what's the difference?) is truly remarkable. Nature can be awe inspiring and what you see inside this mountain is a perfect example of nature's masterpiece. Be respectful and don't touch anything you're not supposed to touch. This isn't a horribly physical excursion, although there's a good amount of stairs, narrow spaces and even one area where you slide down on your bum. People who have any mobility limitations might struggle with this one-although I did overhear that there's an alternate tour for folks who might need accommodations, so ask about that. This was likely my favorite part of the road trip-even more memorable than Yellowstone! (Sssshhhh, don't get me in trouble for saying that.)

    Ignore Google Maps when it warns you that part of the road here is unpaved for the last leg of the…read moredrive. It's actually recently paved, so you have a smooth ride to the parking lot! The path to the waterfall is also paved with asphalt so it's a smooth walk up and great for strollers. There are two vault toilets at the parking lot, and a small picnic area near the entrance of the parking lot. This is an amazing waterfall. Water cascades down a columnar basalt face so it's particularly stunning. I've seen amazing columnar basalt formations (Devils Tower, Devils Postpile), but none with a water element. It's very memorable. I saw some people trying to scramble up the rocks to get to the top of the waterfall, but I'm not sure how safe that is. From satellite photos it looks like there's just forest up there anyways.

    Amazing Hiking trail and falls!!! If you're looking for a…read morefairly easy, clean, green, and amazing trail. This is the right place. All the way up is paved which makes the experience nicer and easier, if you're not looking to break a leg going up haha. The sunset up there are amazing and all pictures are Instagram worthy!!! I took my 70 year old grandma and she enjoyed the hike and even made it from start to finish. The ride there is a bit intense with many curves so I'd recommend to take a bag for those that may get car sick. I'll be coming back to Montana, just for this beauty!

    We entered Yellowstone from the northeast entrance so that we could deliberately drive through the…read moreLamar Valley. We didn't start our drive until early afternoon, so we didn't see a great deal of wildlife, but we did manage to see several herds of bison. The views were very scenic, and we found ourselves pulling over quite frequently. Definitely take your time driving through this area and enjoy the sights!

    This place was definitely a highlight for me when I visited Yellowstone National Park. Lamar Valley…read moreand Hayden Valley are the best places to see populations of large animals. Its valleys are very wide and make excellent habitat for wildlife. Lamar Valley is known as America's Serengeti. Some animals you may encounter here are bison, wolves, moose, grizzly bears, elk and a variety of birds. I drove the long drive to Lamar Valley from Mammoth Hot Springs. Lamar Valley is not part of the Grand loop drive of Yellowstone. It branches off from the northeast part of the loop. Once you reach Tower/Roosevelt Service Station, you turn onto on Northeast Entrance Road. You can then take your time observing wildlife along the way. You will see the Lamar River right next to the road as you are driving. It's about a 30 mile drive on NE Entrance Rd to the Northeast entrance. You will usually see cars parked at pullouts when there is a group of animals nearby. They ask you to not stop in the middle of the road unless wildlife is crossing the street (only stop at pullouts). The best time to photograph Lamar Valley is at dawn or dusk. I spent a whole evening driving through here and got some great shots. I had a cool moment when I pulled over and a bison passed in front of my car. I was able to get some close-up photos of it. I also drove to Slough Creek because I heard you can usually spot wolves there in the evening. I didn't see any, but could hear them howling in the distance. I can't tell you how beautiful this valley is. In addition to the wildlife I saw, I enjoyed watching the sunset. This is definitely a great place to go if you want to slow your life down and take in some beautiful nature.
