The photos on these pages were compiled from six trips to Yellowstone National Park, with assorted friends and family, including buds Jason and Dave, bro Rich, cuz Jim, and neighbor Joe. They cover all of the areas visited on a typical Yellowstone trip, but also include many photos from camping in the backcountry. We start here with photos from winter of 2007.

For those of you who have not yet been to Yellowstone, I hope these photos provide incentive for you to travel to Yellowstone, and especially to take the backcountry trails to see the parts that are off the tourist maps. It's a special place.
