Nature at its best - long time wish fulfilled. TIPS for Visiting
Yellowstone National Park的点评
点评：I think no intro and explanation how amazing it is needs this worldwide unique place.
I am so happy that after 8 great USA road trips over the last 20 years, this year we finally managed to put Yellowstone along with several other remote attractions (Mt. Rushmore, Scotts Bluff, Devil's Tower...) into our itinerary.
I would just like to share some TIPS with future travelers:
- Don't rush it - this place is huge spreading over 3 states but mostly in Wyoming,
- Plan at least 3 days and that applies if you DON'T want to hike around, but to drive, see all attractions and take easy to medium walks around them like we did,
- Lodging is expensive within the park, specially around Old Faithful - try to split lodging locations to minimize driving time forth and back,
- We spent our first night in Billings, MO entering the park from northeastern Beartooth Scenic Bwy, visiting Lamar Valley and the eastern part of YP that day.
- Another two nights we spent in West Yellowstone, exploring western, southern and northern parts of the park,
- West Yellowstone is much closer and has great infrastructure: hotels (I recommend Gray Wolf Inn - great quality/price), bunch of restaurants of all kinds, souvenir shops, museums, entertainment,....
- Buy America the Beautiful Pass (80$) - it's an annual pass and pays of if visiting 3 or more NPs in a year + you have the Fast Pass lane at the park entrance,
- Enter the park as early as possible - the later, the bigger crowds everywhere: at park gates, parking lots, view points,....
- when planning allow significant extra time - you'll spend it finding parking spots at crowded lots, waiting for wildlife to pass or standing at a road standstills when bears are spotted,
- Have at least half a tank - gas stations are few and remote - we filled up every night when coming back to our hotel,
- Respect nature and other visitors - do not pull along side the road for a pic, there're pull outs very, very often.

翻译：我觉得无需赘述，这片举世无双的奇景本身就足以令人叹为观止。
过去20年里，我们进行了8次精彩的美国公路旅行，今年终于有机会将黄石公园以及其他几个偏远景点（拉什莫尔山、斯科茨布拉夫、魔鬼塔……）纳入行程，我为此感到无比欣喜。
以下是一些给未来旅行者的建议：
- 不要赶时间——黄石公园面积辽阔，横跨三个州，但主要位于怀俄明州。
- 至少安排三天时间，即使您不想徒步，只想自驾游览所有景点，并像我们一样进行一些轻松或中等难度的徒步。
- 公园内的住宿价格昂贵，尤其是在老忠实泉附近——尽量选择不同的住宿地点，以减少往返的驾车时间。
- 我们第一晚住在密苏里州的比灵斯，从东北部的熊牙风景公路进入公园，当天游览了拉马尔山谷和黄石公园东部。
我们在西黄石又住了两晚，探索了公园的西部、南部和北部。
西黄石离公园近得多，基础设施也很完善：酒店（我推荐灰狼旅馆，性价比很高）、各种各样的餐厅、纪念品商店、博物馆、娱乐场所等等。
购买“美国美丽通行证”（80美元）——这是一张年票，如果您一年内游览三个或三个以上的国家公园，这张通行证就非常划算，而且您还可以使用快速通道进入公园。
尽早进入公园——越晚，到处人就越多：公园大门、停车场、观景点等等。
规划行程时要预留充足的时间——您会把时间花在拥挤的停车场找车位、等待野生动物经过，或者在发现熊时堵在路上。
油箱至少要有一半的油——加油站很少而且位置偏远——我们每天晚上回酒店的时候都会加满油。
尊重自然和其他游客——不要把车停在路边拍照，路边有专门的停车区域。非常非常频繁。
