Yellowstone Bison

Extreme Yellowstone Adventure (arrive in Bozeman on Jan 7 and depart on Jan 12) $3750.00 Transportation, lodging at Snow Camp, our own private snowcoach and personal photographic instruction included. That’s right we stay in tents (with propane heat) for four nights while concentrating on the west side of the park… Hayden Valley sunrises, Yellowstone Falls by moonlight and more. This adventure is not for the faint of heart as the temps can drop into the sub-zero range but, for those of you who dare, the photographic rewards will be plentiful!

Winter really is a wonderful time to visit Yellowstone. Wildlife is abundant, tourists are not. The landscape is covered in a beautiful white blanket of snow. Photo opportunities present themselves everywhere you turn. Join me for a week in this winter wonderland photographing the thousands of thermal features, wildlife and more. We'll enjoy the park from the comfort of snow coaches as we visit popular locations like Yellowstone Falls, Old Faithful, Mammoth Hot Springs, West Thumb, Hayden Valley and Norris Geyser Basin in our quest for the ultimate winter landscapes while on the constant lookout for wildlife opportunities.            

YellowstoneThis trip is not for the faint of heart...it will be COLD!  I have experienced temperatures in the minus thirties...it's doable with the proper clothing and equipment.  I will provide a list of necessary as well as recommended items to bring.
