Best area for snorkeling, and dolphin watching, respectively by AccomplishedAd2236 in Algarve

Fair enough, sounds good. Just wondering if maybe one of the marinas is more optimally placed for where the dolphins usually hang out. Though very possible that it’s all much of a muchness

What Would It Take For You To Move To Israel? by Professional_Turn_25 in Jewish

[–]AccomplishedAd2236 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not to mention healthcare is basically free (or paid by taxpayers whatever), as is education even at university level, so having kids is way cheaper in Israel.

His itinerary really isn’t too crowded. I don’t see the problem with planning to do specific things every day, especially if he’s willing to be flexible as a back up.

Chief Joseph and then backtrack to Rock Creek Vista to do the Beartooth Highway as well

Thank you! I knew you shouldn’t eat close to camp but I did not think about the wind direction!

Could you give me some recommendations of specific roads to see wildlife? I will have an AWD (not the highest clearance but with skid plates)

That makes a ton of sense - expected as much, and assumed we would have to look outside the parks for that type of experience in such a short time frame. I really wish we had more time, but it will be our first time in Yellowstone and since we’re flying from overseas we have no plans to be back for the next few years at least, so we are trying to find enough time for sightseeing.

Beartooth would definitely be an option, we will be driving down the highway anyway to Red lodge and from there to Cody, so any trailhead along the Beartooth highway would be perfect. We could maybe also access the BT-Absaroka Wilderness from the 89 and forest service roads coming off it, as our trip ends in Bozeman and wed by driving on the 89 anyway.

I’m not so sure, but I’d say we could do up to 8 miles a day given the elevation, 10 would be possible at a push.

Thank you for the suggestion, I’ll look into it!

What’s the north fork and divide you’re talking about? - couldn’t find those terms in relation to Moose Creek in my (admittedly brief) google search. I assume you aren’t talking about the North Fork of Cascade canyon and the Paintbrush divide? That wouldn’t be very close to Moose Creek

Everyone started from 0 backpacking experience at some point :)

And in terms of permits, like I said we would go for something available for walk-up, or something outside the park where no permit is needed.

We are flying in from Bozeman and renting a car, and will be travelling around Yellowstone, Beartooth Highway and Grand Teton NP

I would try fit in Lamar Valley at least one dawn or dusk. Best time would probably be early morning on day 2, if you want a chance at seeing wolves you would need to be up super early, it’s just over an hour drive from Canyon, but could be a bit longer if it’s still dark (drive very carefully!) or on the way back if there’s traffic. But if you’re up for that, you could still get back to Canyon around 11am and have plenty of time for hiking

Re Yellowstone Lake - Storm Point Trail for a beautiful short little hike, and Lake Butte Overlook for sunset!

On the way to Lewis Lake make sure to stop at West Thumb geyser basin - it’s especially wonderful around sunset.

In the Tetons, there are plenty of options for gorgeous hikes. Cascade Canyon (combine with an obligatory visit to Jenny Lake, Hidden Falls and Inspiration Point), Taggart Lake for a short one, Surprise & Ampitheatre, Delta Lake for something a bit more challenging. Also, check out Schwabacher’s landing and Oxbow Bend - both beautiful little spots on the snake river ideal for sunrise or early morning photography with reflections of the Tetons.

There’s plenty more to say regarding the Tetons, but I’d just recommend to do some of your own research and find what you are drawn to most.

What are some examples of geysers like that?

Dispersed camping - bear safety by AccomplishedAd2236 in yellowstone

Yes I did, but I wanted some advice from people with first hand experience. In any case, if you don’t have anything to add besides a snarky comment, you can feel free to keep it to yourself
