Big Sky Country Cody, Wyoming, USA, July 28, 2022

As we left Idaho, we tripped over these two little beauties – Upper and Lower Mesa Falls before heading to “Big Sky Country.”

There is definitely a reason they call it this and I must admit Wyoming caught me by surprise.  I have never heard anyone talk about how beautiful it is here!  We didn’t have any intention of stopping here but Cody had Mexican, so we made the command decision.   We were on our way to Yellowstone and this was the only place with hotels left.  We went to see the volcanic geysers since the park sits on top of a volcanic hotspot and even got to see old Faithful erupt.  She draws quite an audience!

I had hoped to see a bear but no luck. We did get to see the park as it has rejuvenated from the wildfires and it seems to be coming back quite nicely. The park and the unique rock formations are quite beautiful all through the 3.500 mile park. We also drove through part of Grand Tetons as well.
