Midway Geyser Basin

After driving along the Madison and Firehole Rivers and a few smaller geyser areas we reached the Midway Geyser Basin Area. There were a lot of tour buses and groups of photographers in the area. The later ignored the signs and crossed into areas that were restricted seeking to get the best photo possible.

My wife walked around the area and came back to the car a half hour later and the photographers were still in the area taking photos of the same little waterfall.

What I really liked about this area weren’t the thermal pools but the spectacular sky. It continued to spit rain during the early morning and appeared to be snowing in the mountains. The sky made a dramatic backdrop to the thermal area.

More photos from Yellowstone National Park can be found on my website.
