Our Trip to Yellowstone NP

[Sunnyfun]

I am loving all of these pictures of Yellowstone. When we bought our first Class C in 2003 , our first big trip was to Yellowstone we camped in the park for two weeks, loved it so much, but, have not gone back. This year we have bought a new Sunseeker 3050 and thinking I would love to go back and then up to Glacier. Thanks a lot for the pictures .

Sure they don't display on my iPad. :-(

On my Droid I wouldn't even know there is a video imbedded in the message post. The videos do seem to work when I log on with my Windows based computer.

Oakman, you mentioned staying in Bridge Bay previously; I just made a reservation to camp there next summer but will be over the 40' maximum combined length for my TV and TT by a couple of feet. Did you have room to park alongside your 5th wheel? I'm also thinking with the right site I can really back in until the wheels hit the back of the pad and not be centered front to back as usual. How strict are they for size? I've never heard of anyone measuring, but you never know!

One of my favorites - a blue bird at the nest (both adults were there). Buffalo "stampede" - we had them on both sides of the car - (well the ranger got them moving along as they were really poking along at first)

Sorry, the biologist in me is coming out, that is a Tree Swallow, not a Western Bluebird......awesome pictures though, wish I was there!!

I was not sure what the bird was, just a lot of blue color therefore a blue bird. So now I can fix the title of the pic. :-)

(I do love learning - so appreciate true name)

Usually they ask how long your RV is when booking a site so you should be alright. The site I was given was a back-in and was extra wide so my truck could be park alongside.

No, They're not going to measure your rig. Be aware though, Some of the sites can be very challenging to get into, but that applies to all the campgrounds in the NP. As I recall there were a number of pull through sites in that campground, hopefully you'll get one of those. You're booking your trip early enough that you'll will probably be given one of the better sites at Bridge Bay.
