  1. I've been to Yellowstone a couple of times but I don't think I visited the lake. I was surprised to find out these facts, John. I went during winter and spent a week at the lodge, cross country skiing during the day. :-)

  3. The lake is now being overrun with alien Lake Trout replacing the native cutthroats. I still love it though for flyfishing...:)

  4. That steamboat reminds me of pictures I've seen depicting Noah's ark.
