Leaving Montana 7/28

Steaming mountain
Can you tell that we left Montana by heading south and into Yellowstone again?  We entered at the north entrance and exited in West Yellowstone to drive into Idaho.  We drove through Ashton, Felt, Driggs and Victor, Idaho and then returned to Wyoming and up through Jackson and into the Tetons.  We set a personal record of driving through three states in one day, but really didn't drive very far.  In Idaho, we saw more hilly farm country and in Wyoming headed back into sage brush.  We learned that in Wyoming the police officers don't have police cars.  They have trucks.  And so do all the other residents.  You can identiry tourists because they drive cars or RVs.  We camped in a pretty national park campground in sage brush and with no fences between us and the bison herd nearby. 

These bison are not in a national park.  Do they know the risk?
