Discover Yellowstone (upper loop) on a small group day trip from Bozeman. Explore Norris Geyser, Sheepeater Cliffs, Mammoth Hot Springs, Roosevelt Arch, Canyon and Falls with a driver and audio guide.
The Norris Geyser Basin, named after Philetus Norris, the second superintendent of Yellowstone, is the hottest and most unstable geothermal area in the park. It features the world's largest geyser, Steamboat Geyser, which can erupt up to 380 feet. Notable hot springs in the area include the acidic Sea Urchin Geyser (pH 3) and Pearl Geyser. The basin is highly active, with new geysers emerging regularly, making it one of Yellowstone's most dynamic geothermal areas.
The Yellowstone Grand Canyon, formed over millions of years by the Yellowstone River, spans about 20 miles and plunges 1,000 feet deep. Artist Point, located on the south rim, offers a prime view of Yellowstone Falls and the canyon. The canyon is famous for its depth, the rush of the green river, and its vibrant, multicolored volcanic rocks. These rocks shimmer with hues of white, yellow, green, blue, and vermilion, making the canyon appear as if painted with oil colors. This stunning site, immortalized by painter Thomas Moran in 1872, features brilliantly colored rock walls that remain untouched by erosion.
Lamar Valley, located in the northeastern part of Yellowstone, is a lush, wildlife-rich area home to bison, grizzly bears, pronghorn antelope, and elk. Once a farm in the early 20th century, it's now a prime spot for gray wolf sightings in spring, early summer, and winter mornings. Visitors often describe the view where Roosevelt Tower meets the valley as "alluring upfront, majestic in the background," offering a unique experience for each observer.
