Into a snowstorm

Along the windswept, Specimen Ridge. 

Along the windswept, Specimen Ridge. 

Quintessential ski tour with Dr. Jesse Logan earlier this week.  
We took to the bison trails and ridgelines, south of the Lamar Canyon.  Our route and discussion, revolved around the obvious abundance of wildlife, but also the human prehistory our immediate landscape, and how our day's route was likely the common course of Native Americans traveling up river to the Lamar Valley (specifically taking into account river fords).  We observed an ermine and a coyote in close proximity, and had excellent tracking conditions/  fun skiing conditions following the overnight snowfall.  

Great to be out in Yellowstone 'as always'.
