I will be traveling from Saskatoon sk to Wyoming by car. Is there anything fun to do
or see on the drive? What kinds of things are at Yellowstone! I will be traveling with four People ages 21-29.



Answer
Yellowstone has the best of several types of activities:
* wildlife viewing
* thermal feature viewing
* beautiful overlooks
* hiking
* camping
* backpacking
* boating, kayaking, canoeing
* horsesback

Only the first four can be done without advance planning. Do bring hiking footwear, portable water containers, a knapsack and other day hiking gear to provide more options.

To save on expenses, bring tents, sleeping bags, etc., so you don't have to pay for a motelâthose in and around the park begin at $80 per night and go up to over $300. Grab a tent site early in the day, at least before 13:00 on busy days or before 16:00 on light days.

Yellowstone backpacking is unlike anywhere else. Primitive back country campsites are by reservation only and are very generously spaced so you don't see anyone else. To get a backcountry permit, you have to sit with a park ranger for an hour for videos and advice about dealing with wildlife and then you are assessed whether you would be a bear snack or not.

On the way from Saskatoon, there is not much to see. I understand Grasslands National Park of Canada is worth a look. You will be going right passed it if you use the most direct route.
