We spent 3 days in Yellowstone. Parked at Grant Village campground, right on Yellowstone lake. There was still snow in the campground. I guess they just opened and the first people had to shovel out their spaces. It was beautiful. We were only able to see part of Yellowstone. We did not make it to Mammoth Hot spring, Lemar Valley or Roosevelt Lodge. We did see the geyser basin, old Faithful, Yellowstone Lake and the mud volcanos.
