Yellowstone's Buffalo
Aug 1-4, 2007. We are staying in Grizzly RV-Park in West Yellowstone, Montana just out the west gate of Yellowstone National Park. We stayed in a different site every night because we did not have reservations and at this time of year they are FULL. The only way we got to stay there for 4-nights was to move into cancellation sites. The rates range from around $37 to $47 depending on a variety of things but generally back in sites were cheaper than pull-thru sites. Then they charge $4 for wifi. I suppose the pull-thru sites are a bit larger so the BIG rigs would probably be forced into one of them. Grizzly is a nice park, the nicest campground in the area. Bottom line is if you are planning to visit WEST YELLOWSTONE during July thru Aug-15 you need a reservation as every campground in the area is FULL. After August 15 you can have your choice of campgrounds with no reservations.
Buffalo
I think these buffalo were in the Hayden Valley located between Fishing Bridge and Canyon Junction on the Grand Loop Road.

This year we found herds of buffalo near Grand Loop Road in both the Lamar Valley and Hayden Valley.

These buffalo are in the area of the Hayden Valley although they have climbed out of the lower valley into this more arid area where they can enjoy dust baths in sandy spots.

Buffalo & Canadian Geese along the Yellowstone River
This year we have seen a good many Canada geese along the many rivers in Yellowstone. In some places we have seen several hundred geese gathered in a grass field for what appears to be lunch.
Buffalo grazing in valley of sage brush
Notice in this picture how sage brush is growing on the valley floor as well as on the slopes leading to the valley floor. Sage brush has a silver or gray sheen that helps identify it.
