Yellowstone National Park - Day 2

We got up before dawn and drove into YNP and across the northern loop on out into Lamar Valley where we were 1st in line for a buffalo jam (VIDEO LINK). The video is from my dash camera through the windshield so it's poor quality, and the buffalo do not make their appearance until after about one minute. Here (VIDEO LINK) is a short video I took of the same buffalo crossing using my cell phone. Later, using the scope lens, we spotted a mother wolf with 2 pups. Unfortunately, the wolves were so far away we could not get them in a photo. We continued driving the northern loop stopping for various points of interest, Petrified Tree, Roaring Mountain, Sheepeater Cliff, among others. Lastly, dinner again at Yellowstone Pizza Co. in Gardiner, MT.
