Road Trip - Days 3-5 - Yellowstone and Grand Teton NP

Days 3-5 (Oct 3-5)

We spent the next few days visiting Yellowstone Park. We started by driving clockwise around the top half of the upper loop in Yellowstone NP, stopping to view different thermal areas and wildlife.







Due to road closures, we had to turn around and come back the same way once we reached Tower Falls. 






That evening, we had dinner in West Yellowstone and spent the night at our hotel.


The next day we drove clockwise around the lower loop, starting at the top and working our way around, ending with Old Faithful.









The next morning, we drove along the bottom of the lower loop on our way out of Yellowstone.








After leaving Yellowstone, we headed to Grand Teton National Park.


We explored a few trails and scenic points, enjoying the scenery and wildlife.







Later that evening, we arrived in Jackson WY, where we had dinner and spent the night.

Road Trip - Day 6 - Wyoming and Idaho

Day 6  (Oct 6)

We spent most of the day driving from Jackson WY to Hagerman ID, making several stops along the way.



Because I like weird attractions, we headed to Arco, ID to see the submarine in the park.





From there, we headed to Craters of the Moon




After we checked into our motel in Hagerman, we drove to Miracle Hot Springs and soaked in a private hot tub.
