We left Cody Monday morning and turned a 4.5 hour drive into a 10 hour scenic road trip. It was a blue-sky day and the views were phenomenal! Below the boys try to pet a chipmunk at the top of Chief Joseph Highway.
Near the bottom of the Bear Tooth Highway, we found this most amazing waterfall.
Here we are at the top of the famous Bear Tooth Highway. We felt a bit guilty drinking in such beautiful scenery above tree line without having to hike for it. The "bear tooth" pokes up in the center of the above photo.
A pit stop in Cooke City. Huckleberry ice cream and a vanilla iced latte - yum!
Just after entering Yellowstone we came upon an "animal jam." This is where 40 to 50 cars, trucks, motor homes, and motor cycles all pull off to the side of the road while several hundred others try to navigate through. We joined the gawkers and thoroughly enjoyed watching a little black bear feed in the bushes on the mountain side!
The beautiful Lake Lodge at Yellowstone Lake. 
Have a wonderful weekend!

What a beautiful scenic tour ~ thanks for sharing!! Was obviously worth the extra 5.5 hours :-)
Nice to see photos from Cody too ~ I like the family photo w/ the John Deere (maybe it should be posted to The 7 C's??, along w/ any others ??)
The boys sure are growing and so handsome! Can't wait to see you all soon! :-)
One of Seth's favorite places in WY...Sunlight Basin. It was good to see you guys. Hope you have a great rest of the summer and then the excitement of meeting baby Benjamin in the fall. :-)
