4E4 Yellowstone National Park Backcountry — Yellowstone National Park

This was by far and away the best of the 5 sites we stayed at between Ice Lake, Grebe Lake, Wolf Lake and Cascade Lake. Sunset swept through the valley changing its colors and shadows most exquisitely. Fire pit, bear hang, pack in pack out permit required for overnight. As with all the lake sites—bring your deet spray and plenty of it! Silent at night other than a random tree falling. Creek runs right up to the bear hang making water filtering really convenient. We saw buffalo on our hike back to the trailhead :)
