Nikon D200 Soup | Yellowstone Hard Winter Falls The harsh winters at Yellowstone can provide some interesting images. This particular day was relatively warm for a February day in Yellowstone. It was above zero. It’s not unusual for February to see temperatures of -20°F to -30°F. The Bison in the background looks pretty lonely.
The Back Story Capturing this image was pretty simple. A short hike from the snow coach and a simple click captured it. For more images and information about Yellowstone, see Yellowstone NP Wild | a 7 Image Story. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
