Our second day at Yellowstone started out early again with early morning fog. It was beautiful, however, dangerous. There were two wrecks on the way into the park. Our stops included the Mud Volcano Basin, Mammoth Hot Springs and Upper and Lower Canyon Falls. Very interesting how hot the water is. We got to sit in the Mammoth Hot Springs, where if you got too close to the hot springs coming into the creek which was freezing, you would burn yourself. Find a small pool in the middle and it was like sitting in a comfortable hot tub. If you plan on sitting in the hot springs, come more prepared than we were. You must have water shoes and come wearing you swimsuits. The canyon and water falls were well worth the drive. The north side of Yellowstone, other than those 2 stops, is nothing compared to the rest of Yellowstone, so it made an easier day. We are so glad we were able to come see Yellowstone National Park!
