So, since our dude ranch was on the East side of Yellowstone, we had to travel through the park again to get on to Glacier. At first I was a little frustrated at myself that I didn’t really put this together and have us stay our last night on the West side of the park (although I remember searching for a place a year ago and let me tell you it was already slim pickings for a family our size at a reasonable price even then!). Anyways, it all worked out great because as we made our drive through the park we got to see a grizzly for the first time!
We also got to see some huge elk really close up with fuzzy velvety antlers!
We completed our drive through Yellowstone and I counted up all of our animal tally marks. What a phenomenal amount!! I love that we have so many bison and elk and managed to see both a black bear and a grizzly bear!
The drive to Glacier was absolutely stunning. Long, about 9 hours, but 70% of it was just so beautiful, the time flew by. And then we were greeted with this view when we arrived at our AirBNB in West Glacier. Very satisfying!
