TRIP DESCRIPTION
In the world of photography, timing is everything. And there's no better time to capture the astonishing beauty of Yellowstone than in the summer when nature puts on a grand spectacle. The park is a sanctuary for a variety of wildlife. The Lamar and Hayden Valleys are among the best places to see large mammals in North America. During the fall, it's not uncommon to spot grizzlies foraging in preparation for winter, or herds of elk in the midst of their rutting season. Sightings of bison, wolves, pronghorn, and bighorn sheep are also possible, offering countless photographic opportunities. We will be following the rut season looking for opportunities of elk doing battle or bison sparing off. We will also be photographing the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone along with some geysers and the Grand Daddy of them all The Grand Prismatic.
Our guides has spent many years exploring Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons area. They know which roads to take and where to position you to capture incredible images.
