Bison jams on the lower loop, a rainbow over the Lower Falls that felt like it was made just for us, prairie dog babies popping out of their burrows mid-traffic-stop, and of course, insane views — this is Yellowstone we’ve come to know and love. 

And it’s what we experienced on our latest trip there, yes, even in the summer! 

Prepare to be amazed, because even after several trips to America’s most well-known national park, there’s still so much to love. 

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why Yellowstone traffic is wild, but how you can still find peace and solitude in the park 
  • Why Lamar Valley remains the single best wildlife-watching spot in the country (and what we saw this trip)
  • Just how big this park really is, and why a good plan makes all the difference
  • Why the geothermal features in Yellowstone beat anywhere else on earth
  • Geysers you might not have on your radar yet
  • Why even frequent visitors to Yellowstone keep getting surprised, including a rainbow at Red Rock Point and a first-ever moose sighting in the park
