19th-21st

Over the last three days, I went fishing at the Slough Creek on the 19th. and caught 2 good sized Cutthroat trouts, on the 20th I climbed Bunsen Peak and took the Sheepeater's Cliff trail back, and then on the 21st went fishing at the Lewis Lake channel between Lewis Lake and Shoshone Lake and didn't catch anything. On the 20th, it was a perfectly clear so I got quite a bit of sun and tan from hiking. Bunsen Peak is about 3 miles straight up and then Sheepeater's Cliff trail is about 4.5 miles back on an easier hike, so it was a long day in the sun. Didn't catch much either day fishing. Saw lots of wildlife at the Slough Creek, and explored some of the Lamar Valley.

Lewis Lake with the Tetons in the backround.

Lewis Lake. Connects to Shoshone Lake in the southwestern part of the park.

The fire going on in Yellowstone. It is burning over by the Lake.

Part of the Canyon area, seen from the North entrance.

Sheepeater's Cliff Trail.

Electric Peak.

From the top of Bunsen Peak we could see the Tetons. Bunsen Peak is right outside of Mammoth in the North entrance. Over 120 miles from the Tetons. It is very hard to see in this photo but the Tetons are dead ahead in the photo.

A bald eagle.

Mammoth and beyond it the city of Gardiner, Montana.

Again the Valley by Bunsen Peak.

A Mule deer. He is actually a small buck. He doesn't have any horns but you can tell he will be growing them soon by the black mark above his eye.

A beaver who was not happy that we were fishing near its den.
