Winter Yellowstone Winter Yellowstone speaks for itself - but you have to ski to hear it. The area is alive, both with sounds and geyser activity.
Wildlife also tends to be contentrated along the first two miles of the trail.
For the adventurous there is a steep trail to an overlook above Old Faithful. After about a mile along the Fountain Flats on a packed snowmobile road, the trail goes through the woods to the falls, and on beyond to Imperial Geyser. The return backtracks to the dropoff and then in the woods to the Firehole River valley entering the north end of the Geyser Basin. Updated 15 July 1996 by Bob Harms. Photos by Bob.
