I've been applying to a permit lottery for a particular hike almost every month for a couple years now.  Kinda sucks, but someday if I actually get one I will enjoy not being mobbed by other hikers.

Great summer for bull moose encounters.  Just about smacked into one on a trail run.  Another walked right through our campground.  A couple from a distance.  And now these two.

Where are you going, TBT?


Also, this may be a curveball for this thread, but does anyone have any awesome pictures from Kansas VQs?

This is very meta because Wyoming's landscape is basically the moon.

Maybe!  I am staying with family so we will see.  They are basically preparing for the apocalypse there so I'm not sure how this will turn out.

Zip lining in MHK tomorrow. It will be an adventure of sorts. 7 zips and one free fall!

Morning run started out great.  Cool air, amaze views, made it to lake destination on time.  Then I sprained my ankle, hobbled down the last four miles, missed out on a bear sighting by a couple minutes, then backed into another car on my way out.  At least I got these sweet pics.

I have decided that I want to VQ to Yellowstone next summer. I am beginning to do research/ planning for the trip now. Any pro tips/ reccomendos are appreciated. I intend to camp outside the park and head in quite early every morning. This thread is my inspiration.

Why not stay in the park? I'd reserve a spot at Madison.

no good reason. i believe that i read the suggestion to stay in a campsite outside of the park somewhere when i started kicking around this idea. that is the second time i have seen madison mentioned in this thread. what are the pros to staying there?
