Getting back on that horse. Oh my God... the pressure...

Okay. Okay. I can do this... I can – post something – just hold on, ease into it...

How about... some pictures! That's it! I'll throw up some pictures!!

Here's another shot of Grand Prismatic Spring. Notice all the bleached treetrunks in the background, a legacy of the 1988 fires.

Speaking (again) of the 1988 fires, here's another area that burned, right around Wraith Falls (the shiny thing in the middle.) Notice that the larger trees are often dead, but there is a lot of undergrowth coming in as well.

This shows the old-dead-growth vs. green-new-growth better:

And finally, your reward for sitting through all that: a bison.

This one was about 20 or 30 yards off the road, just grazing. Moved its tail a few times, but that was about it.
