Morning Glory Pool in the Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park

We were the only car parked in the lot at Old Faithful Lodge that morning. The lodge would not be open for another two weeks and the roads in the park had only been open themselves for three days. As we began our hike a ranger drove up and informed us that a grizzly bear had just chased a small herd of bison through the geyser area and right past Old Faithful. So we decided to wait until the next day for our hike...and still had it to ourselves.
