The Secrets of Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone National Park is one of the best national parks in the world. However, it is also one of the most popular. Things to do such as Old Faithful, Grand prismatic Spring, Mammoth Hot Springs, and The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone are often crowded, so this video will highlight some of the lesser-known hikes and attractions that can be enjoyed in Yellowstone.

Glad I watched this. I head there Thursday for the 5th year in a row. Going to do Bunsen Peak.

Cool video… I find that if you leave the pavement, you’ll enjoy a fair amount of solitude in any NP. Yellowstone has some features for which there is no substitute, so sometimes ya just gotta deal with a few folks on those boardwalks… 🤷‍♂️

Whenever I do this park, there's a stop I plan to go to that I think will probably not be crowded. That stop being the summit of Eagle Peak, the highest spot in the park and also Reese Creek at the very northern tip of the park, which is the lowest.

How about a video series about what to do in each NP and how long you should spend. For example, I am thinking about going to Colorado next year or the year after. I plan on visiting the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic RR, the Durango and Silverton RR, Mesa Verde NP, and Great Sand Dunes NP since they are all really close together. I have about one day for each NP. It would be nice to know what areas/trails are must see areas and which are optional. This way I can plan my trip so I see the most in the most efficient way.
Most NPs can be seen in one day so I think it would be great to see a series on what you need to see for X NP in one day. Some parks like Yellowstone need at least 1 & 1/2 days. 3 days to do Yellowstone justice.

I saw you did Eastern National park special, being from North Dakota and a lover of my Theodore Roosevelt NP(especially the north unit) you should do a video ranking your favorite Midwest national parks :)

I agree grand geyser is absolutely gorgeous it reminds me of the fountains in many of the cities and palaces in Europe

Yellowstone is my favorite national park and I'm someone who definitely enjoys solitude. Yellowstone is kind of like a theme park and an incredible wilderness in one. Nature puts on a show like no other at Yellowstone, sure sometimes you'll be sharing the show with hundreds of others (and it's still well worth it) but if you truly want to you can completely get away from the crowds. The places you list are great but are still busy compared to some of the backcountry areas of the park. There are places in Yellowstone where you can backpack for days and see hardly anyone.

Lone star geyser is great, but to me there is no greater [predictable] geyser experience at Yellowstone than Grand Geyser, now that's a show, there will be a crowd but only a fraction the size of the crowd at old faithful and it's a superior geyser in several different ways. Great Fountain geyser is another excellent one that will have a smaller crowd still.

Don't talk about Yellowstone's "secrets." You're just gonna ruin it when too many peoole show up. I swear you social media influencers are gonna ruin everything.
