Other things to do in vicinity of Yellowstone
We are home again after enjoying one of our best timeshare vacations.
Since we had been to Yellowstone last year, we didn’t need to spend every day in the park. Here are some other things we did:
We enjoyed a flyfishing float trip on the Madison River arranged through Arrick’s Fly Shop in W. Yellowstone. Our guide was Andy Pappas and we highly recommend him. We also drove up to Big Sky, MT, and played golf. They have a nice 18-hole course and the drive up the Gallatin River valley was spectacular. We also went up to Bozeman, MT, to have a rock chip in our windshield repaired. The downtown was fun to walk in as there are lots of shops, restaurants, and galleries. From there we drove east to Livingston, south along the Yellowstone River valley, and into the north entrance of the park—another spectacular drive. Another interesting thing was to drive north up 191 to 289 and go west along Hebgen Lake and Earthquake Lake. There’s a national park center with displays and a film about the huge earthquake that the hit the region in the late 1950’s. It was quite interesting.
