Whilst some of the Wildlife of Yellowstone, notably the bears hibernate, bison, [elk](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/elk/), [moose](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/moose/), mule deer, [wolves](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/wolf/), foxes & coyotes roam the Park as the cold & wind drives them down from the high ridges to forage & hunt for food in the open meadows near the road. We will spend three full days scouring the interior of Yellowstone. During these days, we will travel by snow coach & the primary focus will be on the wildlife of Yellowstone, such as [bison](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/bison/), [coyotes](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/coyote/), [red foxes](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/red-fox/), Trumpeter Swans, [otters](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/otter/) & bobcats. However, no trip to Yellowstone would be complete without a trip to see Old Faithful, the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone & other geyser basins. On day five, we relocate to Gardiner, our base, for the remainder of the trip. We will explore Gardiner & the Lamar Valley for the next four days, looking for [Bald Eagle](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/bald-eagle/), [Bison](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/bison/), [Coyote](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/coyote/), [Elk](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/elk/), [Moose](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/moose/), [Pine Marten](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/pine-marten/), [Wolf](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/wolf/), [Bighorn Sheep](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/bighorn-sheep/), [Otter](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/otter/), [Red Fox](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/red-fox/), [Stoat](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/stoat/). If we are lucky, we may even see foxes “mousing”. The Lamar Valley is one of the best places in the world to see [grey wolves](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/grey-wolf/). During the winter, the snowy landscape acts as a blank canvas for quickly spotting their dark shapes as they move across the hills & valleys. Yellowstone National Park in winter is a truly magical place with opportunities to capture images of some stunning landscapes & the fantastic wildlife that call the Park their home. For this 9 night tour, we have joined forces with Adam Brubaker of Tied to Nature, a long-time provider of some of the finest winter tours in [Yellowstone](https://natureslens.co.uk/specific-location/yellowstone/).

Winter conditions transform Yellowstone into a snowy wonderland with frozen waterfalls & ice pellets from geyser rain, creating dramatic photographic opportunities. ## Transportation ### How do we travel within Yellowstone during winter? We travel by snow coach during the three full days in Yellowstone's interior, as regular vehicles cannot access these areas in winter. Snow coaches are specially designed vehicles that can navigate the snowy terrain while keeping photographers warm & comfortable. ## Photography Focus ### How much time is dedicated to wildlife photography? This is a dedicated wildlife photography holiday with seven full days of photography - three days scouring Yellowstone's interior by snow coach & four days exploring Gardiner & the Lamar Valley. The winter focus maximises opportunities to photograph wildlife behaviour unique to the season. ## Lamar Valley ### Why is the Lamar Valley particularly good for winter wildlife photography? The Lamar Valley is one of the best places in the world to see grey wolves, with the snowy landscape acting as a blank canvas for quickly spotting their dark shapes as they move across hills & valleys. Winter drives wildlife down from high ridges to forage in open meadows near roads.
