To be honest, my biggest concern was how I was going to be able to get everything down to Old Faithful. Surprisingly enough, the trip was very smooth and I managed to get all settled in with very little hassle. It is amazing to be in the park with snow. This past summer we had a pretty good snow in late September, but nothing like this. The depth of the snow at Old Faithful varies from one to two feet and, since it is winter, none of it is melting anytime soon.
Travel is different in that most people are skiing or snowmobiling.
Believe me, it is not that easy to walk in this much snow. So far, no cabin fever. Once I start work, I will be able to establish a schedule that allows me to utilize my daylight hours to their fullest. It will be interesting to meet and talk to all the people that come to visit Yellowstone in the winter.
