Yellowstone Vacation
Day 2-Page 2
Day 2
On our second day we started early to avoid the crowds at the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone.  A painting of the canyon by Thomas Moran helped influence Congress to make Yellowstone the first National Park. We also drove through Hayden Valley which is known for wildlife and beautiful scenery, Mud Volcano, stopped by the charming historic Lake Yellowstone Hotel, and Artist's Paintpots. This was our longest day.
