Day	Route	Distance/Time	Comments
One	Park City or Salt Lake to West Yellowstone Route Map Click to enlarge	321 miles 514 kilometres 5 1/2 hours	Our two day Yellowstone tour leaves Park City at about 7 a.m., and Salt Lake at about 7.30 a.m.  We can pick you up either in Park City, or at a downtown Salt Lake hotel.    Our route takes us through northern Utah, into Idaho, before entering Montana.  The drive is a picturesque one, and we'll stop occasionally to take pictures and to stretch our legs.   A sack lunch is provided.
One	West Yellowstone to Yellowstone   Yellowstone Map Click to enlarge	24 miles 39 kilometres 1 to 2 hours	There is so much to see, and not that much time on a two day tour, so we need to maximize your enjoyment.  After entering Yellowstone, we'll leave Montana and travel into Wyoming.  Please note that there is always road construction in Yellowstone, and, depending on which roads are closed, and where the delays are, our route and schedule may change without notice. We'll make for the Lower Geyser Basin, and check out Fountain Paint Pots, amongst other areas of interest.  Along the way, with any luck, we may see elk, bison, deer and Trumpeter Swans. One of the beauties of Yellowstone is that there is such a wide variety of sights to be seen.  You may come across a herd of bison creating a traffic jam, or a big old elk with a towering rack, or a lone geyser erupting just as you approach it.
One	Yellowstone	Rest of the day	Our next stop is the Upper Geyser Basin and Old Faithful, the most famous geyser in the world.  There is a lot to see and do here, and you can take a very interesting hike around the various geysers in the basin.  A highlight is watching Old Faithful erupting.    Amongst the geysers that are worth seeing is Grand Geyser, the tallest predictable geyser in the world.  Old Faithful Inn, a magnificent old structure, is located in the area, and you can relax there with a cup of coffee, or even have a meal while the others are taking in the action outside.   From Old Faithful we'll go to West Thumb, and the shores of Lake Yellowstone.  On the way we'll cross the continental divide twice.  Yellowstone Lake in an unbelievable blue color, with geysers and hot springs on the shores.  There are almost always elk in the area. There is time to take in one more major attraction today, and we'll follow the shore of Lake Yellowstone, past Fishing Bridge, to Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.  This spectacular gorge, with the Yellowstone River cascading over a powerful waterfall and through a deep canyon, is not as well known as the park's geysers, but it is equally spectacular.  It's time to return to West Yellowstone and we'll take a shortcut across the middle of the figure of eight that makes up the Yellowstone road system.
One	West Yellowstone	Not applicable	Spend the night
Two	Yellowstone	About six to seven hours	This will be a full and fun day, with much to see and do.  We'll head out of West Yellowstone towards Madison Junction, where the Madison, Gibbon and Firehole Rivers meet.   Turning left (north) we'll make for Norris Geyser Basin.     Although it is not as well known as some of Yellowstone's other hot spots, it has some fascinating thermal sights.  Norris is the hottest and most changeable geyser basin in Yellowstone,  and it is home to Steamboat Geyser, the world's tallest active geyser, which can erupt to more than 300 feet high. The two main areas at Norris are Back Basin and Porcelain Basin.  We'll stroll around and take pictures. The next stop is Mammoth Hot Springs, headquarters of the park, and home to a fascinating array of weird rock shapes, bright colors and sizzling hot springs.  Elk are generally plentiful in this area, wandering around the old park buildings, and, if you're lucky, you might even see a whole herd.   A sack lunch is provided today. From Mammoth we'll take a leisurely drive back to West Yellowstone, stopping to take in anything that may be of interest.
Two	West Yellowstone to Salt Lake City.	321 miles 514 kilometres 5 1/2 hours	That's it - time to go back to Utah!  We can either drop you off at the airport or a Salt Lake hotel, or you can return back to Park City with us, if one our Salt Lake City/Grand Canyon/Arches/Monument Valley/Bryce Canyon/Zion/Lake Powell/Antelope Canyon tours is ready to leave in the next day or two.     That's the end of your Yellowstone tour - thanks for joining us!
