Episode 14: Is Yellowstone the One National Park You Have to Visit?
If you could only visit one national park in your lifetime… would you choose Yellowstone? In this episode, we’re diving into why the answer should be a big YES, plus what to do (and what to skip) to make the most of your trip. From erupting geysers and massive bison to Junior Ranger badges and wildlife traffic jams, we’re sharing our top tips for planning a day - or more - in America’s first national park.
We’ll walk you through what loop to drive, where to stop, and how to avoid common mistakes that can waste time or even put you in danger. You’ll hear about our favorite visitor centers, why we love Old Faithful, and how to stay safe (and respectful) around wild animals.
Whether you’re dreaming of spotting a wolf in Lamar Valley or just hoping to find a parking space near a flushy toilet, this episode is packed with practical advice and a whole lot of love for Yellowstone.
