Great video, good content. Loved your video on Yellowstone blunders, by why on earth did yâall disable the comment section on that video?? I love being able to communicate with other viewers and see everyoneâs opinion on the topic of the video.
Tip 18 is very important. I was last there camping July 4, 2018. It snowed. Prepare for wild weather.
You guys are the best! For all the info you made available THANK YOU.
Youâre very welcome!
I know I wish I saw these videos before we went. Have you ever been to Yellowstone?
We just found your channel and have been binge watching videos.
Thanks so much for all the great information!!!
Awesome, thank you! You're welcome.
Great video! I'm here right now. Excited for tomorrow!
Awesome! Have fun!
My kids get the park patch - that way when they're grown, they can be displayed along a fabric display board.....my oldest son got 138 junior ranger badges completed, my younger has (I think) about 50 or so and is still working on more as we go along in our adventures!
That's awesome!
I take photos of entrances but not always with the kiddo. We did the free pass when our daughter was in 4th grade!! Get the pamphlets and READ them all. great tips. These are great tips people. The coyotes were cool. We saw one once but it was very early in the morning. We saw wolves near Slough Creek Campground which was actually closed (covid) but the rangers opened it so people could set up long range cameras and spotting scopes. This was a blessing because the wolves were the one thing my daughter wanted to see more than anything else. Kepler Cascades is one of my favorites. Thank you I never knew about bike paths!!! Still have not seen any grizzly bears. (been there 7 times). I have to go back again. and hike in the back country.
Way to go on the coyotes and wolves! Good luck finding the grizzly bears.
Here's a tip regarding your National Park Passport book:
I was a volunteer in the visitor center at Cabrillo National Monument for several years, and people would sometimes leave their passport books behind or otherwise lose them and they would be turned in. In virtually every case, no one would write their name and contact information on the inside cover where there's a space to do that. There was one passport book that was filled to the brim with cancellation stamps from parks all over the country, and we had no way of getting it back to the owner. If that was my book, I would have been heartbroken to have lost it.
I LOVE this suggestion!! Youâre right; thatâs so sad they lost the book. Really great idea they Iâll include as I talk about these in the future.
I really enjoy your videos. My wife and I are planning to make a trek up to Yellowstone within the next couple of years and your videos get us so excited!
Thanks so much!!! Youâre going to love it
Best video ever. Thank you. I love â€ïž this.
So glad!
Another great video! Thank you to both, you & your wife for making these videos, they are so helpful!
Youâre so welcome. Thanks so much for watching. Iâm excited for you to see Yellowstone!
Definitely good advice about not going for baths in the hot springs! Not a good idea.
Lady outside her car taking photos of the bear with its cubs...Lol.
Oh i could give you sooo many storys about west yellowstone. Many WEST Yellowstone visitor storys from our years of having a business in West from 75 to mid 80s.
We always said if they were going to give the world an enema, west yellowstone is where they would stick it.
Thanks for the tips! We are leaving tomorrow for Yellowstone and this video was so helpful.
Youâre welcome! I notice you just started your channel. I subscribed. Good job!
We're in the Rockies Yes we just started and we are so excited to be part of the travel community. Thank you(:
Nice! Iâm about to take my family there in about a week. Weâre getting more excited everyday! Thanks for the video and tips!
Nice! Enjoy your trip.
I think youâre there in Yellowstone right now? Iâm excited for you and your family. I hope you see some bears. :)
We're in the Rockies we are driving to Idaho right now from Zion. Great times so far!
Scott Castor Zion AND Yellowstone? Amazing. If you have little kids, stop at Bear World on the way - itâs a blast for the kids.
Great video, I will be using these! Especially the last one.
There is a Yellowstone app from which one can download a Park map to use offline.
Great tip!
Great tips! Thank you. Suggest you mention the MONTH of your visit in all your videos. Helpful to viewers to assess crowds, etc.
Once again I absolutely loved this video. Used a lot of your tips for st. George and had a great time. Yellowstone trip is in July and we look forward to implementing these to for that as well.
Thank you đ so much!! How did you like St George?
@@WereintheRockies I really enjoyed it. The temple visitors center was so nice. Unfortunately I didnât realize Brigham Youngs and Jacob Hamblin home tours required reservations (maybe next time) but we really enjoyed snow canyons and red cliffs park. Weather was perfect as well.
@@ladybugmom10 Hmmm, reservations for those places -- that's new to me. Haven't heard of them doing that before. Glad you go to see Snow and Red Cliffs though!
Um altitude can be a challenge for some,play high sleep low,lol and yellow stone is a park not a zoo the animals,and thermals can hurt you ,it's Americas park utmost respect đ
Do you guys realize how truly fortunate you are to be within driving distance of these great locales? Hell, as Lt. Uhura would put it? I'm not even within a hailing frequency of 'em. Which is why in my retirement, I pick and chose those to fly to...and really appreciate ALL your video lessons.
Thanks Old Ranger. And yes; we do realize our blessings. Which is why we want to share them with yâall!!
@@WereintheRockies "Y'all"??? Why, bless your heart, ma'am......
@@WereintheRockies I've watched the last two days when, at 5MST sharp, the shuttle tickets for ZNP came available first for today and then again for tomorrow. And they're in folks' carts pretty damn quick just as you've foretold!
Oh boy. I hope you get them during the advance window
@@WereintheRockies I'm certain I will. Each night I was able to plunk them into my cart with 15 minutes to execute. Only after one, which I was able to cart yesterday and today both. Deleted them so as not to take a seat from someone who will actually be there.
Hmm biking paths with Bison, elk, wolves..... Nah Iâll mosey along in the car.
Hahaha. You havenât lived until youâve been close to a huge bison! Lol
@@WereintheRockies Thatâs the deal, Iâd like to continue tođ
Hahaha. Iâm putting together a video right now with all the dumb stuff people did in Yellowstone this year, like getting too close to the bison.
If you've ever been there and see how beautiful everything is, it's really tempting to hop on a bike to get that 360 view. I actually want to go back and do biking.
We are headed to Yellowstone in 2 days! This is very helpful information, thanks!
How was the weather when you went, and was it crowded?
Making my first trip in late October. Loved the video! Thanks Much!
We hope you have a fantastic trip
How was Yellowstone in October, I went a month before you did. very smoky from the fires.
@@Pixics I donât know how it could have been better. A snow storm before I arrived. When I got there the roads had been cleared. Most beautiful place on Earth!
Thatâs really cool!
@@Alliejen12345 Oh that happened to me to, there was a snow storm a week before I went and it all melted by the time we arrived.
Best bike ride for lunch. Lone star geyser
Ya I forgot to mention that! Thank you
Tip 15 excites me đđ
Hahaha.
A lot of good tips
Hey Bill! Camping video coming soon. :)
Binoculars and sporting scope
We are going to go for that double coco orange cream frap something!
You won't regret it : )
Great video and great tips.
Thanks! I love your channel name. :)
@@WereintheRockies Thanks ! it is the name that God gave us.
Even better!
I have some tips for you, use the damn pullouts. I don't care how good of an idea it may sound in your living room back home, dragging a 70 foot camper with a boat behind it and a 4 wheeler behind that isn't really a good idea.
Iâd love a video on where to get meals and snacks inside Yellowstone, the prices and what ones are good. Like all those disney food videos out there:) thanks!
Great idea. We already had it on the agenda. So many videos to make! :) And we are going to Disney World right now and yes, weâve seen a lot of food videos. Hahaha
@@WereintheRockies Have a great time at Disney! We went the week they opened after the shut down and it was an experience of a lifetime with no crowds! Hopefully you have the same luck with low crowds!
Thank you so much. When are you visiting Yellowstone?
@@WereintheRockies We will visiting Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons in the beginning of July!
We will be posting more videos of both parks.
What was the cause of the seemingly non-animal related traffic jam around the 3 minute mark in the video?
Construction!!
Just got back from yellowstone, we spent 2 days there. The lower road of the lower loop was closed due to a fire but we saw a bunch and were really happy :) Thanks for the tips we ended up staying at the Rainbow Point campground and loved the lake (even though we didnât swim in it cause of an algae infestation). I fell in love with yellowstone canyon and want to go back and spend a full day there, could you do a video on specifically yellowstone canyon?
Thatâs amazing you asked because Iâm just getting ready to do one!! Wow, sounds like you had an interesting trip. Iâm so glad you posted about it. I love hearing about peopleâs trips. :) I didnât even know about the fire.
Boris, I finished a video on the Grand Canyon! czcams.com/video/w9eXpge4U38/video.html. Hope you enjoy. :)
Stay on the path? What's that? Lol.
Judging by the human footprints I see near these geysers, it's scary to see many walk off the path.
Is there plenty of places to buy ice for the coolers?
Yes. There are plenty of gas stations and stores within the national park
Watch a lot of your videos. I have a dumb question about vehicle damage by park animals.
Am I going to be able to get a police/ranger report if a Bison runs his horn down the side of my car. Or just chalk it up to uninsured motorist insurance
Lol. Well, itâs crazy unlikely, although I have seen some elk scratch up vehicles. Not sure if the park gives reports on it, but Iâm assuming thatâs highly unlikely as well, mostly because it would be a miracle if a ranger saw it happen.
Thanks for the tips! Where did you see the Wolves at?
They were coyotes and they were on the road from West Yellowstone to Madison. Pretty close to the Madison campground. Thanks for watching!
I've never seen a wolf in the wild before, but coyotes are a dime a dozen. They wander the my city all the time snatching little pets.
Tip bring bear spay
Are they letting you stamp passports during COVID time?
Good question! The answer is: not really, because all the visitor centers are closed. There is a visitor center in West Yellowstone, but it is jointly operated by the chamber of commerce and the park service. They might let you stamp it there, because the chamber of commerce part of the building is open. There is also an information station in West Thumb that is open. I doubt they have a stamp there, but they might.

Keep in mind, the animals here are wild, they are not pets. Don't try to pet them and don't get anywhere near them. Stay at least 25 yards away from them. Also, don't feed them.
I enjoy your videos. I've seen quite a few of them and haven't seen any incorrect information yet, and I enjoy your comedy bits. However, this video needs one more tip, for those people who fall into the Touron category...
* The Grand Tetons are NOT in Yellowstone.*
So many Yellowstone videos have shots of the Tetons in them, and that is so misleading. Even National Geographic has done that. I mean, come on... If you're going to make National Park information videos, at least get your story strait. Specially if you have a world wide reputation to consider! :)
I do wish NPS wouldn't euthanize every animal that Tourons interfere with. They should have called the Bronx Zoo about that bison calf that Tourons put it in their car because they thought it's mother abandoned it. They would have taken it, or found someone else to take it if they couldn't. There was no need to kill it.
Plus there are bison farms so yea why kill it ?
You canât walk off the path ?
Nooooooo. Lol
Ok well if a bear or a bison is on the path they can arrest me because I will get off of it lol
Hahaha. Good point.
Tip 22. Don't roller skate in a buffalo herd.
đ It clearly states no running on board walks. "Leave no trace" (lets wonder off the trails) And I dont think any ranger wants an accident to happen with children hanging out a vehicle. Sorry you felt the need to somewhat complain about the rules.
