Yellowstone Park - East Loop (cont.)

      Yellowstone Canyon was certainly worth a much longer visit, but we had to get just outside the north   entrance into the park before darkness fell.  It was already mid afternoon and those unfamiliar mountainous
     roads would not be safe for night driving.  We estimated that our lodging was about 3 hours further.

Oh look . . . we have spectators.

Guess who has the right of way on all the park roads?

At last we reach the north entrance with about 1 hour of daylight left.

Just outside the gate is the famous Roosevelt Arch.

                  

                           Beautiful downtown Gardiner, Montana.
