Since Devil's Tower....

....there was a whole lot of driving. Made it across Wyoming in a day, and to Yellowstone, where they told us that there was nowhere to pitch a tent in the entiretly of the park. After reading all the bear signs and seeing a wolf eating something, we ruled out sleeping out and spent the night in the car, which wasn't as awful as we initially thought.

Yellowstone was pretty, but way to full of tourists, which was annoying. But we got to see some good geysers and some sweet crystal stuff. As well as bears, wolves, bison, elk and couples dressed identically. After that, we drove through the grand tetons. To save time, here is a picture of yellowstone lake, with the Grand Tetons in the background.

After that, it was more driving. This time it was to City of Rocks, in Idaho. We were feeling pretty lazy, so we just bouldered a bit. Mike heel-hooked a cactus. It was epic.

Now we're sitting at my Uncle's house in McCall, Idaho, hanging with my Aunt, Uncle, two cousins, two dogs and my new second cousin. Plan on doing some local multi-pitch stuff tomorrow, maybe the next day too, we shall see. After that, heading up through Glacier National Park, and trying to get out of the country by July 4th.
