Day 18- Glenns Ferry, ID to Yellowstone National Park, WY

This was our campsite at Three Island Crossing State Park. The site was very nice, but it was more of a weekend camp area for locals from Idaho than it was a tourist destination.
We passed lots of dairy farms in Idaho, so I had to get a picture of the cows there.
We hadn't actually ever heard of Shoshone Falls until about three weeks before we got out of school. One of our friends said she heard it was great and we researched and went. The falls were amazing and the water was actually really low when we were there. We saw some pictures of the falls at higher water volume and it was very large.


Here is a picture of a waterfall that was on the way to our campsite at Indian Creek.
Terrace Spring was a set of hot springs and geysers that funneled out and formed many terraces down a nearby hill.

The lady in this picture got too close to this elk and the elk began to chase her down the hill. This is why you don't get too close to the elk.
This bison was fit to be put on a buffalo nickel.
Here were some of the first elk we saw in the park.
And here is our campsite at the Indian Creek Campground. We had some very nice neighbors and the site was very nice. We had a great time all three days we were there except for when the fire grate fell on my toe and Katy got sick the first night.
