Mystic Falls, Yellowstone |
Things have ways of working out. The sun was as intense as the last time we were here in 2017. But the air was breezy and cooler, a perfect weather for a day hike. The change of plan also saved us 2 days and afforded us an extra day of rest in Lake Tahoe before returning home.
I no longer remember if we stopped at Biscuit Basin the last time -- I'll have to sift through the pictures we took. But we didn't do any day hiking, and that I know. This time we walked to the trail head at the far end of the basin and hiked to Mystic Falls, for about 3 miles total.
We left Yellowstone through the West entrance and then followed US 20 southward to Idaho Falls. This gave us the view of Teton Mountains from Idaho, the opposite side from where we viewed in 2017. And now we can say that we know the Grand Teton, front and back.
