"Although summer is jam-packed, a winter visit delivers the same striking scenery and abundant wildlife with far smaller crowds. The famed geysers, steam vents, and hot springs are especially dramatic when scalding geothermal waters meet frigid air; stay at the Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel and take a guided day tour to Old Faithful to spot steam-frosted bison, glimpse the Fountain Paint Pots, and watch the famous geyser erupt with barely a soul in sight." - Sarah L.
