Spring in Yellowstone is a joy to behold

This year our spring vacation took my wife and I to the east entrance of Yellowstone, 53 miles west of Cody Wyoming to one of the most impressive national parks in the United States. After entering the east gate and traveling the 27 miles to Fishing Bridge we were impressed with the vast beauty of the park and the immenseness of Lake Yellowstone. The park has over 40 major waterfalls, approximately 300 active geysers and about 10,000 thermal features. The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is 1,500 to 4,000 feet wide and 1500 feet deep.
