I re-entered the park around 4am through a completely unattended entrance and arrived at the campground at about 5am.....way before most campers were awake.....scored site by 6:30 and was asleep again in the camper til 10am.
You know when you stop working for any extended period of time and you relax, your mind turns to mush.....it’s like the circuitry in your brain get rewired. If there was any work related stuff rolling around in my mind it completely disappears after a day in the Lamar Valley.....2 full days and you’re numb. There are fewer places I’ve been that are more scenic.....unreal views, wild stuff crawling around everywhere and fantastic fishing.
Soda Butte Creek.....loaded with big cutthroat trout....caught a ton. It seemed like you could just cast a floating grasshopper in any pool and it was fish on. Biggest was 16 inches. Grilled cheese sandwiches with a view and back to the creek again at dusk...fish rising everywhere......any dry fly would do....
Back to the campsite, you’re driving in the dark, giant shadows appear in the middle of the road....buffalo....in no hurry at all.
