Photos of Yellowstone trip and report

One question.... Last week I read about a hiker being killed in the park. If you keep to the main trails are you safe?

These hikers were not far from well traveled areas near Artist Point in the Canyon area and attacked by a bear not seen in the area before. Even so, bear attacks are extremly rare. We have never encountered a bear on a hike, but make noise and to avoid surprising one.

Your pictures are like postcards! You must have a great camera. This deepens my desire to visit that part of the country. Glad you had a great time.

Where did you see the bears that you had pictures of?

The one near the road was off the main road between Norros and Mammoth. The captive bears and wolves were at the Discovery Center in West Yellowstone.
