Not Quite a “Monkey on the Back”

By Jim | Published June 1, 2022

Today’s post features an image captured during my recent winter trip to Teton NP (Wyoming).

Alaskan Ice Cubes

By Jim | Published May 19, 2022

Although the eruption reaches up to 20 feet, it is nowhere near what Old Faithful offers (100 – 180 feet). Jewel Geyser has a shiny, beaded […]

Bubbles in the Mud

By Jim | Published March 31, 2022

Today’s post features some more images I captured in late February in Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming).
