In a land of cold, hot water.
Blue and grey walk hand in hand.
Snow and steam abound.
Contrast therapy soothes the soul.

All ears
Out in fields of golden grasses there are days when Mule Deer just appear as all ears.
A bit like periscopes for sound and all the better to hear you with as they rest on a winter morning.
Sunrise, Fog and Pines
The morning sun rising above the steam, fog and lodgepole pines on a very cold morning in Yellowstone National Park. Photographed on the fly while heading towards the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone using my phone.
Reflecting Pool 1
A beautiful thermal pool reflecting what little sun could find its way through the overcast afternoon sky. Yes, there can be color on a cloudy day. On the way back to the Upper Geyser Basin after skiing out to Fairy Falls. Yellowstone National Park, 2015.
A Ravens snack
Perched safely atop a post a Raven enjoys a little snack. Where their meal came from might just have been a recent wolf kill as Ravens and Wolves have formed a relationship in some places as this paper describes. In fact some Ravens have even learned to follow specific wolf groups as they hunt and may even have learned specific hunting calls of certain wolf packs. They know when the dinner bell is ringing so to speak. Anyway we saw this raven enjoying their little snack in an area in which we have heard wolf calls in the past so you just never know, their meal might have been provided by wolves this day.
Have a great weekend.
On a windy morning
On a windy morning along the Blacktail Plateau the fresh snow moves yet the trees stand tall.
On a quiet morning
On a quiet morning.
The sun shines bright behind thin clouds as tracks tell a tale in the snow.
Flow in the snow
Hot water flowing through the snow on a frosty morning in Yellowstone NP. Photographed while xc-skiing skiing out to Biscuit Basin on a snowy winters day.
Hello Pronghorn
Greeted by warming rays of the morning sunlight a Pronghorn begins its’ day.
At Forests Edge
Waiting at the forests edge
The valley filled with fog
Go don’t go
In a mile the sun comes out
nature has no boss
