Spring is a special time in the Yellowstone country. This a time of birth, Elk, Bison, Deer, Moose,and Pronghorn babies will be out with their mothers in attendance foraging in the new green, flowering meadows and forest. Grizzly and Black Bear, Wolves and Coyotes will be hunting to feed there own growing young. This along with the scenic wonders of America's first national park make this one the most productive times for nature photographers.

The itinerary will include airport pickup by 5 pm at Idaho Falls Idaho and transportation to West Yellowstone, Montana. After checking in we will proceed into the park for our first evening of shooting. During the next 3 days we will leave West Yellowstone well before dawn to set up in time for our sunrise shooting. Our exact daily location will vary depending on the location of the wildlife, but these will be long exciting days with opportunities to photograph subjects as varied as newborn mammals,hunting predators, fishing eagles and osprey. Of course there will be bubbling geysers and mud pots. Hiking will be limited to short hikes. The weather can be variable in Yellowstone any time of the year but generally the temps will be in the 30's in the morning warming into the 60's and 70's mid day. Light rain or snow is possible but severe weather is un-common during this time.

On the morning of the 27th, after our early morning photo shoot we will return to the Idaho Falls airport for you return to the real world with a refreshed spirit.

Instruction will be provided as needed and you will receive a complete orientation on the how, why and when to photograph each location we visit as we explore Yellowstone in spring.
