September Park Photos

We’re back from our September cross country vacation. This article is delayed a bit since we took a second trip out west in October. Now that I’ve had some time to organize, I’ll share a few pictures from September – concentrating on wildlife and some scenics.

One of our first visits was to **Mono Lake** in California.

These craggy structure is called a tufa. They are unique to the Mono Lake ecosystem.

These pretty Indian Paintbrush plants along the shores of Mono Lake

A few days later and 1100 miles north we arrive at **Glacier National Park**. That’s the McDonald Creek in the valley below.

Beargrass cover many of the higher slopes in Glacier

This deer was grazing close to the road near Logan Pass

Logan Pass sits near the top of Going-To-The-Sun Road. This trail takes you to Hidden Lake adjacent to Bearhat Mountain

Looking from above into one of the many valleys in Glacier.

We drove south to Mammoth Hot Springs in the north part of **Yellowstone.**

I spotted a Clark’s Nutcracker on a short walk along one of the trails

Here’s a close up look at one of the travertine terraces at Yellowstone’s Mammoth Hot Springs

A small group of bighorn sheet grazing in the Lamar Valley

A herd of bison marching in the Lamar Valley.

Using a long lens I captured these mountain goats a few hundred yards away in the Barronette area of Yellowstone.

The **Badlands** was the final park that we stopped at this trip out west.

The range of the bison includes The Badlands in South Dakota.

Here’s a few national park stickers from our sister company StickItToYourCar.com that decorate our car’s bumper.

We hope you liked seeing some of the pictures from our September vacation.

An Important Possession

01st September 2024

I Carry This Card In My Wallet

My two life long hobbys are photography and travel. Putting these two together has taken me to more than a few of our National Parks.

This is the card that lets me enter so many grand destinations. The National Parks System manages 63 areas designated as “Parks” and some 350 more areas that include monuments, conservation areas, lakeshores, historical sites, preserves and the like.

A yearly pass will let you into these area for $80. If you’re a senior citizen you can purchase a lifetime pass for $80. It’s a bargain price that lets you see some of America’s greatest places.

When I purchased my lifetime senior pass years ago the cost was just $10 so I’ve really gotten my money’s worth from all of my park visits.

There are NP System managed areas in every state waiting for you to visit and enjoy. They provide some of the best recreational and educational opportunities that our country has to offer.
