I decided to do the "tourist" sites today, starting with Old Faithful. But, by the time I got to the Old Faithful site, I'd already stopped several times to view hot springs and baths. Upon arriving at Old Faithful, I had a half hour to spare, so hiked up to a lookout viewing area about 200' above and back of the geyser. Noteworthy today was the bull elk that crossed the road 15' in front of me, the grizzly bear 300' below me, and the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone park.
