A female wolf, alpha female of the Grant Creek Pack, in Denali national Park, stands with the head of a small caribou she hunted and killed earlier that day.

Hey Folks,

Recently some of the environmental news has be regarding the delisting of the Gray Wolves in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Hence you can see, I post a picture of a wolf from Denali National Park.

As you can see from the image, the wolf was collared by the Park Service biologists, to track and record her movements and to help them learn more about wolves. She’s dead now, apparently killed by wolves in another pack last winter, wandering onto some turf that didn’t belong to her. Such seems to be the way with wolves. Continue reading →

Lower Falls, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

Lower Falls, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

Hey Folks

Just a quick note here to say G’day and keep moving. This photo was taken a few days ago, at the Lower Falls on Yellowstone River, near Canyon Village, in Yellowstone National Park. I wanted to shoot from the famous Artist’s Point viewpoint, but that location is closed at the moment for renovation. Apparently it is expected to take 2 years to complete. Ya gotta love the National Park Service’ committment to renovation and building things. They never seem to have money for rangers and programs, etc, but always have cash available to build new things. Nothing like construction in a National Park.

So, anyway, I shoulda headed to the North Rim viewpoint, but this one wasn’t too bad. The Yellowstone Canyon is awesome – probably one of my favorite features within the park. A little dusting of snow certainly added to its grandeur whilst we visited.

Right now I’m at a campground in Deer Lodge, Montana, and my feet are cold, so I’m out for the day.

Cheers

Carl
