This podcast covers 19 great  places that you can swim, get in a hot pot, get under a huge waterfall and swim in Yellowstone Park and you can visit these spots whenever the park is open. I get you to the some of the most fantastic swimming and hot potting spots that can't be found anywhere else on earth. 

We cover the stupidly popular Firehole swimming area near Madison Junction which USED to be a great local place to swim but is now simply overrun with hundreds of people every day all day long but has been closed for the last few years and why it might stay closed from here on out. By visiting MY places, you can have the entire place to yourself for as long as you want them. 

I then tell you where you can get right into and underneath 4 huge waterfalls and have their thermally heated water pouring all over you. And where you can soak in numerous hot pots throughout the park. 

I also cover the best and safest spot to take small kids who want to take a dip while they are on their Yellowstone vacation.   

This podcast covers hiking in both Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. I first cover hiking in Grand Teton and get you right up into the craggy spires of the Tetons where the peaks are shooting up all around. We then cover Teton hikes that are totally suitable for small kids with fantastic views of the Tetons and also tell you the hikes you should  avoid. 

Then we cover the best of the best day hikes in Yellowstone where you can get off the beaten path and away from all the crowds and explore some of the best hot pools and geysers in the Yellowstone backcountry where you will have the entire place to yourself and most of these great spots are not shown on any maps. And you will be in spots that less than 100 visitors have been since the inception of the park in 1872!

We then cover longer and overnight hikes in Yellowstone and then cover the beautiful Bechler Region of Yellowstone also known as the Cascade Corner section of the park where 80% of the parks waterfalls are located and where you can soak in a hot pot all afternoon at the base of a huge waterfall or swim in Mr. Bubbles, the largest natural hot pot in the park. 

I then get you to a spot where you can swim in a hot stream after you got soaked at the base of Union Falls which is the largest double falls on earth and is the cover shot for the guidebook. 

I cover what maps you will need and how to reserve a backcountry campsite and tell you the best ones to get and where to hike when most of the park might be snowed in and I also give you a bunch of hikes which are suitable for small children who are big hikers. 

I even cover some outer edge hikes that are still in Yellowstone Park but are located where you don't have to enter the main park gates and fight all the traffic and crowds just to do a bit of day hiking. I even cover the best hikes where you can take you dog along with you. 

This is a big podcast but I only cover the best of the best hikes in both parks and get you to some truly remarkable places where you can Explore Yellowstone and Grand Teton like a local!!

This is one of my Story Podcasts for your listening pleasure as you drive through Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. 

This story is about how I found a book in an old book store in West Yellowstone which opened my eyes up to all the back country trails in Yellowstone Park. On this hike, we have some really funny escapades as well as you're truly learning a really valuable life long lesson after I got my hat handed to me in a big way. 

In this podcast, I cover 3 great roads that are all shown on the Yellowstone park map they hand you when you go through the gate. However, these roads skirt the Northern and then Southern Boundaries of Yellowstone Park and hardly anyone even knows they exist but they all offer some great and seldom seen sections of roads inside Yellowstone Park as well as just outside it's Western Boundary. 

We cover all the great things to see from West Yellowstone north on 191 which actually goes inside the park without any fees or traffic and a suggested 55MPH speed limit which gets you to some of the best hiking spots in the park as well as Big Sky and then I tell you about the best of Bozeman including where they film scenes from the show Yellowstone with Kevins Costner. 

We then hit 287 as it exits Yellowstone Park and I get you to the best breakfast in the US and then along the driving tour of the worst natural disaster to ever hit the US where you will be driving on the top of 28 bodies under the road. 

We then hit the Flagg Ranch Road which runs from Ashton Idaho right along the souther boundary of Yellowstone Park all the way to the South Entry gate. We hit the fantastic Bechler area which is my favorite part of Yellowstone as well as discussing the Zone Of Death where you can (theoretically I hope) commit murder and actually get away with it! 

Its all big fun on some seldom seen roads both inside and right outside Yellowstone Park that get you to some of the best spots in the Worlds First National Park.
