Yellowstone winter tours?
Ok, so here’s the reality check: Reservations at Mammoth or Snow Lodge at OF are gonna be slim to none if you’re thinking this Christmas. West, Gardiner, Chico, Big Sky will offer additional (and more plentiful) options, but I wouldn’t wait around. 👍🏻- rmyoung1

Yellowstone winter tours?
I concur. They have cabins with hot tubs there. And an ice skating rink. The hotel rents skates (or used to). All of that was fun when I was your boys’ age, @Nick87 😄- rmyoung1

Yellowstone winter tours?
Shouldn’t have trouble finding wildlife in Lamar in the winter. Always a bachelor group of bull elk wintering just west of there on the Blacktail Plateau and then bison in Lamar, but the real prize is the frequent sightings of wolves. First wolf howl I ever heard was on a winter evening in...- rmyoung1

Yellowstone winter tours?
I really like YNP in the winter. The price to get around in the park interior in wintertime is pricey these days, but so is everything else, I suppose. The geyser basins are impressive that time of year with the temperature differences creating really amazing steam clouds and everything. Staying...- rmyoung1

You tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen.
Around Ingomar on private was where I found the most. Nothing that would blow your socks off, but at least live antelope. -

Nope, but we sure roughed up that room at the SureStay in Forsyth in a fit of frustration. -

That’s wild. I had my 13-year-old with me. I was impressed with his 11-1/2 miles on opening day. 16+ is a long haul for antelope. Family record??? Is this where we are in Region 7? Miles hiked per day exceeds inches of horn length??? -

In hindsight, I burned too much time this weekend on the PV, I believe. -

I did my 38,000 steps with a stress level of 1/100, bro. I’m like a chill Chuck Norris. My boots lace up themselves. -
You tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen.
I almost drove myself crazy mumbling the same question to myself over and over. “How am I not seeing antelope right here?” It’s such a neat piece of country. Darn shame. -
You tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen.
What this tells me is that I need to be better about tapping into the collective HT brain trust. I looked over a remarkable amount of country on the PV. Fleeting look at 5 antelope. Zero deer. It was crazy. -
You tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen.
I was shocked, honestly. I mean, I know I’m not the world’s best pronghorn hunter, but I’m not blind. And it’s not like we stayed in the truck all weekend munching on pork rinds at 85 mph on I-94. It was disheartening, for sure. No idea how FWP justifies the tag numbers they’re issuing. -
You tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen.
That’s impressive. We weren’t near that tough. Once Dad realized, we hit the mission abort button. -
You tried to tell me, but I didn’t listen.
We broke the darn U-joint in my dad’s truck. Slid all over in the mud in 2WD. Got nice and wet. I’m licking wounds now. Anyone else ever hunt the PV Ranch BMA? Is it true that it stands for “Pronghorn Vacant”???
