  • Hearing local news report on the flooding damage occurring in Yellowstone and viewing the footage from National Park Service helicopters of the Gartner River and Soda Butte Creek, Megan and I realized how lucky we were to have been safely evacuated. Knowing the park would remain closed we changed our plans to include a visit to the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone, to fish opening day at the Railroad Ranch, on Henry’s Fork of the Snake River in Harriman State Park, and to fish the Warm River in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest

      We just posted the 3rd video in our Yellowstone Evacuation series. Spent yesterday with my daughter pulling together the videos for our 4th and final chapter in our story. Enjoy!

    So nice to see fathers and daughters (or sons) enjoying trips and/or doing things together. Those create memories that will last a lifetime.

    This broke my heart a little bit. I road tripped by myself to Yellowstone in August 2020 when the pandemic was in full swing. There were hardly any people on the road the way it was in your videos. That meant getting to enjoy all the sights in peace. I stayed in Pocatello Idaho after driving 13 hours from my home in northwest New Mexico. Then took the 20 to West Yellowstone. I also had to stop for souvenirs :). Then I proceeded down the same road y'all came out of. To see how torn apart it was made me cry a little bit. Yellowstone was always a trip I wanted to take since I was a kid. At 32 (in 2020) I got my wish and I cried driving through that very entrance and in to the park because that child in me was happy. Looking forward to seeing more of the journey ahead!!

      Thank you for your story. It is a specioal place for us. We took our daughter, Megan, to Yellowstone when she was around 3 or 4 years old. We bought her a toy cap gun and holster in Cody, WY on the drive in. While driving by one of those big bull bisons my wife gave me a tap on the sholder to look back at Megan sitting in her car seat behind us. Megan was pretending to shoot at the bison. We looked at each other asking, where in the world did that come from?

      And to think, we would not have had time to check it out had we not been evacuated. And, it was sheltered from the wind and unaffected by the area flooding. A real gem. Water was crystal clear.

The Grizzly/ Wolf Discovery Center sure has changed . So glad to see they expanded the wolf enclosure...😊 .Thanks for bring back some great memories , its been 12 year's since I moved back to my home state .

    Having commented on part 1 I have to put a follow up here. The damage to the northern entrance/roads is scary. When they fail its so fast there's no getting away from them.
    At around 3.5 minutes is a standard view in Ireland. Actually, right now Britain is on red alert for its hottest (and dry) heatwave ever from Friday to Tuesday. Here in Derry its pleasantly warm and I put some towels on the line to dry. Ha. Weather got me. Ten minutes later we got heavy, persistent rain for over 2 hours. I had to put the towels back in the machine for a spin. Lol. Anyway, the weather you showed around 7 minutes, we only get that occasionally in the winter. Thankfully not in June.
    Stay well.

      Michelle, thank you for your comments. Fortunately no one died from the damage and flooding. Credit the Yellowstone Park Service for responding quickly and making tough decisions to protect us and the other visitors to the park. The first time I saw Ireland was flying over it as the sun was rising. From high above it was so green it looked like a Columbian Emerald.

      Much of the money raised in places like this and zoos goes towards conservation and research. In my former state of NJ, zero public funds are used. Hunting and fishing licenses are the only funding for wildlife.
