Bunsen Peak - Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming, USA)
2018-10-16. I wanted to hike up Washburn Peak (3122m, 10,243') but was disappointed to find out that the trail had been closed even though the road and area were still relatively snow-free. So I had to settle for Bunsen Peak. I'm glad I did as this peak is a great excursion and a good goal for early spring or fall and I would imagine that in the summer that the trail gets very busy.
The extension to Osprey Falls is well worth it and would definitely have fewer hikers along the way if solitude is your thing (like it is mine!). Bunsen is only one of the many amazing peaks in this beautiful national park but it is one of the easiest to access and the summit views make it a must-do adventure.

Go Play Outside! A short hike in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming
This is my 6th trip to Yellowstone National Park, but the first with my family and a Youtube account! This video chronicles a short hike I took after riding my bike for a while to a natural bridge near the Bridge Bay area (I say Fishing Bridge in the video but that's wrong). If you've never been to Yellowstone and you live in the US, it's a must-see if you have any interest in wildlife, nature, beauty, etc. It's all here!

Day 32 Grand Teton National Park, Yellowstone National Park & Beartooth Highway USA Road Trip Part 2
Today I visit 2 of the Best National Parks, Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park (my opinion, not fact). And then we exited Yellowstone on the most scenic route which is Beartooth Highway. Nothing compares to it.
All 3 locations have amazing untouched nature that will blow your mind and make you wonder where all this beauty came from. With places like Jenny Lake Trail, Inspiration Point and Hidden Falls in the Grand Tetons, and then amazing places like Old Faithful,Yellowstone lake and the amazing bison, elk and bears in both parks you cannot go wrong.
Then Beartooth Highway takes you up and into the highest peaks of the country and you can drive all the way up to almost 11,000 ft and then back down the switchbacks. It is quite and experience. And you have to be sure to visit the [Clay Butte Lookout, Top of the World Store, Beartooth Lake, The Bear’s Tooth and the 45th Parallel. Beartooth is also part of highway 212 if you were wondering.
Let's start a movement. Traveling before or while in college should be commonplace and expected. The power of travel is life-changing and has the potential to enhance society overall. When you travel you learn AMAZING things about yourself, the people around you, the world around you and the opportunities there are.
Without travel I argue that you will never realize your fullest potential because there is so much that you are missing out. Traveling even the smallest of distances will change the way your mind thinks and lead to what society needs most, people who have found a passion, are pursuig it and discovering breakthrough technologies, theories, lifestyles, careers and more.
In Europe this is already commonplace to take a semester, summer, month or year off to explore the EU before or during college. I want to make it commonplace in the United States of America as well. It is possible to do it on any budget and I help people learn how to make it a reality. Find out more at:

Hiking Mt Washburn Trail, Yellowstone NP
Hiking the Mt. Washburn trail from the Dunraven Pass trailhead about 2 of the 3.5 miles, Jackie and I were on the lookout for black bears that were reported in the area. We made it halfway to the summit of Mt. Washburn (elevation change of 1,400 feet) and felt that was good enough. Not long after we turned back we spotted a brown bear just off the trail - grabbed the bear spray, but not the video. Did get a couple of still shots.
Yellowstone National Park is amazing, even with the haze of Western forest fires.

Hiker Taking Photos is Killed by Grizzly Bear.
Sadly, a hiker was killed by a Grizzly Bear at Denali National Park in Alaska. It is the parks first death by bear since officially becoming a safe haven for wildlife in 1917. The bear had to be put down for public safety since it now was a man eater.
Rangers found the tourist camera and determined he spent over 8 minutes near the bear at a range of 50 yards. Park rules at Denali ask you to be 300 yards to 1/4 mile away from bears and at Yellowstone they state 100 yards. Ask anyone who visits or works at these parks and they will tell you they see people brake those rules daily for bear, moose, elk and other wildlife. Do people think they can out run a 30mph charging bear? Do they think they will get that perfect picture, not knowing the footage they watch on nature shows are taken with huge lenses, and sometimes even staged with captive animals?
Please enjoy nature, but be careful out there. For yourself, for the wildlife, and for everyone else that plans on visiting these amazing areas.
Thanks.

Half Dome
Noted for its distinct shape, this granite dome-shaped structure is located in the eastern part of Yosemite Valley in the Yosemite National Park. Three sides of the face are smooth and rounded, while one side appears sheared off … giving it the appearance of a dome that was sliced in half. More than 4,700 feet high, the summit was first conquered in 1875. Today, adventurers can endure a grueling hike to the summit, or take one of several rock climbing routes. Have you ever been?
Charyn Canyon
It would be really easy to mistake this location for the Grand Canyon in the US. While Charyn Canyon is grand, it’s actually located some 7,000 miles east of Arizona’s natural wonder. It’s found in the Charyn (chair-un) National Park of Kazakhstan, and has earned the nickname of the Grand Canyon’s little brother. While its fiery red sandstone formations and raging river stretch for some 56 miles, that still comes up short against the elder Canyon, which stretches for some 277 miles. Another difference is that unlike the Grand Canyon, it little brother is not heavily commercialized … meaning visitors often have to bring their own food and water.
Crater Lake
The national park in Oregon is named after this amazing lake. At a depth of more than 1,900 feet, the lake nearly fills the caldera that dates back some 7700 years ago, after the volcano Mount Mazama collapsed. It’s the deepest lake in the US, and the second deepest in North America. In addition to offering a spectacular landscape, the lake is noted for its water clarity and for its deep blue color.
Torres del Paine National Park
You’ll find a vast array of spectacular sights including glaciers, lakes, mountains and rivers at this large park in Chilean Patagonia. The park contains the Cordillera Paine, a small group of mountains. Three distinctive granite peaks that have been measured to rise nearly 3,000 meters (9,843 ft) serve as the park’s iconic centerpiece. It’s one of Chile’s most popular parks, attracting more than a quarter-million visitors each year.
Kruger National Park
Located in South Africa and covers nearly 5 million acres … and contains the more species of large mammals than any other game reserve found in Africa. The Big Five game animals all reside here -- Elephants, rhinos, buffalo, leopards, and lions call the park home … Along with hippos, giraffes, Nile crocodiles and more than 500 species of birds. That provides visitors the chance to get about as close to the epic wildlife as possible.
Grand Prismatic Spring
This looks like the work of an artist who created a psychedelic image. But it’s a work that exists in real life and was created by Nature. The Grand Prismatic Spring is located in Yellowstone National Park. Did you know it’s one of many hydrothermal features created by a dormant supervolcano that exists underneath the area? Measuring some 370 feet in diameter and going around 160 feet deep, it’s the largest hot spring found in the US … and ranks as the third largest hot spring worldwide. Temperatures can reach about 160 degrees fahrenheit. The vivid blue coloration in the center is the result of blue light being scattered by particles suspended within the water.
Grand Canyon
Measuring some 277 miles long, 18 miles wide in some places, and about a mile deep, the famous national park in Arizona more than lives up to its name. The South Rim tends to attract the most visitors, and includes features like the Bright Angel Trail, and the Desert Watchtower. The North Rim is more secluded and attracts hardcore hikers and backpackers. All areas of the park offer so much spectacular scenery,that it would be difficult to take a bad picture there!
The Great Wildebeest Migration
One of the most amazing sights on Earth, happens every year at the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. It plays host to more than a million wildebeest charging across its 5,700 square miles in search of better grazing lands. And those animals are accompanied by hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles. Some people have called this the greatest show on earth. Big cats, bush elephants and buffalo are also some of the larger critters found in the park.
