Yellowstone, Day 6

Steamboat Point is on the north shore of Yellowstone Lake and gives a 30 mile view to the south on a clear day.  This is looking to the west toward Fishing Lake RV park, my home here for 10 days. 

Sylvan Pass is on the way to the east entrance to the park.  It is stark, cold and barren.  The winds whip through there and make it more than an interesting ride.  But the views make it worth it.

My book doesn't help me with the name of these orange flowers.  But they are everywhere at the higher altitudes and are beautiful!



The blue flowers were also everywhere and always adds to the show.  This pool, along the north shore of Yellowstone Lake, seem to capture the mood of the day - colorfully reflective.
