Northern Yellowstone: Where the Wild Things Roam [Lamar, Roosevelt, Beartooth, Mammoth & More]

[@kevinmcbride1866]

Great video!!! Watched many of yours before we visited in Sept 2021. Two things gonna happen now. 1. As soon as the wife wakes up I'm watching this again. 2. We're going back. Didn't get to Lamar Valley because of a road closed and ran out of time. Plus I'll drive that Beartooth Hwy. Thanks

[@WereintheRockies]

Thank you so much!! And I'm excited you're returning to Yellowstone. It has a way of drawing people back in. :)

​@WereintheRockies me and my son are going to backpack the thorofare, do you have any videos on that?

[@mousetreehouse6833]

LOL, nobody had any idea what the words are to "Happy Trails"🎶 This is such an iconic song for Boomers who were serenaded each week on TV by Roy Rogers and Dale Evens.😌🌹🤠 Even today, my sister and I croon it to each other when signing off on our phone calls with each other!😀 Thanks so much to the deer and the antelope, the bison, wolves, and - oh, yeah - the buffalo (😁) , and, of course, Yellowstone and you for Trigger-ing🐴 such great memories!

Have been going to Yellowstone since I was 3 years old. I am now retired..but still go back every chance I get, it never gets old as it is constantly changing, and I love it when you find baby geysers that have formed since you were last there, LaMar area is among my favorites,

[@WereintheRockies]

That's awesome!

[@jacoblee5796]

I absolutely love this part of America! And Lamar valley is the best place to see wildlife in Yellowstone.

[@erics.786]

Stayed in Gardiner and entered the park the next morning last July. Wonderful memories

[@dwaynesanders2095]

Totally awesome. I went to Yellowstone this past year for the first time thanks to your videos. I'm 64 I'm planning on going back for another trip some day after I retire. Thank you for all you do.

[@WereintheRockies]

That is awesome! Thank you for watching. Really appreciate it!

Another great video . Yellowstone NP & GTNP are our favorite NP’s . We are fortunate that our oldest son moved to Laramie, WY 2 years ago so we get to visit every year now !

[@hectorbarrera8214]

Another great and informative video from Matt and Sheryl of We're In the Rockies. Thank for including us in it! We Loved meeting your beautiful family at the Lodge. One of the Highlights of our Summer Trip to Yellowstone.

[@WereintheRockies]

Yes, Hector!!! I was hoping you’d watch!

[@lindaschoss9958]

Matt!!!! I am honored that I was featured in your video..Great video and even greater trip we had❤️❤️❤️your mom...

You're the best!

[@daniellebollman447]

Wow! This all looks amazing! The wildlife, atmosphere, food, songs, wagon rides...love it all!

[@WereintheRockies]

As always, thank you for watching, Danielle!

[@larrydraper4451]

Northern Yellowstone is my favorite part, especially Dunraven Pass and Lamar Valley. Since you are a history buff, check out the story here in Texas about Charles Goodnight saving the Texas "buffalo" herd. They say he invented the Chuckwagon. This year I intend on entering Yellowstone via the Beartooth Highway. The NE entrance is the only one I have not entered thru. When I took my wife to YNP for her first visit (2004) we stayed in the Absaroka Lodge too. Great views. She loved the Arch and was fortunate to see a mama grizz with 2 cubs. I'm interested in the chuckwagon meal this time cause I hate to cook! Thanks for all of your interesting videos and useful information.

[@WereintheRockies]

Yes! I was aware of the chuckwagon invention. I haven't been to Texas (yet), but they tell his story at the Grant-Kohrs Ranch in Montana, which honors the open range era and the Goodnight trail

[@ceceliaharris-us3xk]

Wow, you put some historical people in here to . I really enjoyed seeing all the different wild animals I loved the sign saying Bison ,looks very passive but don't mess with them they will kill you I guess people don't know that Well done Thank you.

[@JoshG78]

Love you guys. It was a pleasure to meet you at the Lodge. Thanks for putting us in there. We feel honored. Keep up the great work on the videos and I hope our paths cross again. If you're ever in Georgia, let me know and we can all go for a skydive. 😉

[@WereintheRockies]

I’m so glad you saw the video! We almost visited Georgia a few years ago but Covid happened!

[@HeathersHikesAndAdVANtures]

I think this might be my favorite video of yours so far, I'm so glad you did one featuring this section of the park! (Then again I'm a bit partial, since with the exception of maybe the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, this covers my verrrry favorite area of Yellowstone!) I made sure I brought my parents in through the North Entrance for our first visit last year, b/c I really wanted to experience going through the Roosevelt Arch before entering the park to get the "full experience" of finally arriving after so many years of anticipation, haha! Hopefully one day, I can camp in the Slough Creek Campground and hear the wolves serenade me after dark/before sunrise (from inside my van of course LOL) - that is such a bucket list item for me! 🤞 Thanks for including all the history and facts too, as always! 10/10!

[@WereintheRockies]

Thank you so much! You are too nice. I love that you planned to go through the arch with your parents. :)

[@scottphillipy9831]

Yet another great video, full of lots of great information. The wagon cookout was already on my list, can not wait to go on that one. Thanks for all the hard work you put into your videos. And yes, I took notes. My barrel list just keeps growing thanks to y'all.

New Hampshire to Montana this weekend, to pick up my GoFast Camper. Some for serious overlanders told me to check out the Beartooth highway, and then i saw your video and now im here! looks great! Also have enjoyed a deep dive in to the Lewis and Clark Corps Northwestern Discovery. Cant wait to see some of it in person!

[@WereintheRockies]

Awesome!

[@Pailncclt]

now thats a long drive!

[@wncjan]

On my first visit to Lamar Valley, the only animals I saw except from bison were mosquitos. On later visits I have seen grizzlies as well as a pack of wolves hunting bison.

[@WereintheRockies]

That's the funny thing about it; never know what to expect.

[@zhenli2345]

A great video. The Beartooth Highway is truly a gem. Everybody should experience it once, IMHO. Having said that, I would have to disagree with you about Roosevelt Lodge's food. We ate there once, after waiting 1 hour and 45 minutes to be seated. The food could best be described as something whipped up by an 8-year-old, with no sophistication whatsoever. That experience was enough to put us off for the rest of our lives. We own a cabin near West Yellowstone and visit YNP multiple times every single year.

[@WereintheRockies]

LOL, yep, most people say that! Maybe our palates aren't refined enough to tell the difference between good food and bad food. haha.

[@zhenli2345]

@googlenazicompany5935 To be fair, our experience was from 2015. Things may have changed since then. We're just too scarred by our meal to ever go back there.

[@susanshen5577]

Visited Yellowstone first time this past summer 2021 and best vacation ever! I watched and learned so much from your videos and it made my trip so much easier. Already planning on going back and to The Tetons. Would love to visit Yellowstone in winter, do you have any videos to help with planning? Thanks again and keep your great videos coming!

[@WereintheRockies]

My parents have been there in winter but we haven't gone due to kids' school schedule. Planning for next year though!

wow! i was watching old west videos, and this popped up. i have never been to Yellow Stone, but i have lived out west. The picture of the Bison caught my eye. the Bison is the beast of the west! all the wild life out there is just -----nature. i would love to be able to live the Mountain Man life. avoid people, just live with the animals. great video. the camp out, and dinner. did you drink the coffee? from what i have read, they made their coffee from whatever was available. i'am gonna sub and see where we go from here. cause this one was great!

[@deanfirnatine7814]

Little known fact Buffalo, Elk, Deer etc were virtually extinct due to wolves when Europeans first arrived (sarcasm), God people can be dumb, before some idiot accuses me of being a city born lefty, I grew up on a cattle ranch in wolf country and am extremely conservative, I simply believe in facts I can observe and the fact is there are insane tons of Elk in that region and Moose populations are expanding into more areas of the West just as wolf populations are increasing.

[@brianstanding1609]

Excellent video. Thanks for correcting the name of the herd. They are Bison and not Buffalo. A Buffalo is a totally different animal and not native to North America. Another common misnomer is calling the original people in North America, Indians. Indians are from India. The original folks here are First Nations or Indigenous. Cheers
