Review of Xanterra Parks & Resorts, Yell...

Completely overrated it , they show you all these ...

Completely overrated it , they show you all these animals that inhabit the park , but they just happen to never be there when you visit. I came in winter and the valley where the wolfs live was closed for the season , im here in summer and the wolfs will not come out , honestly i have talk to a lot of people that has visited the park in different seasons and nobody has ever seen them , they probably created this lie . They also show you moose but the moose doesnt live there , u will never see one ,
U will see a million bisons or Buffalos , to the point u get tired of them , specially because those are the one causing all the traffic . I saw a couple of bears to a distance and that was about it , this time i stayed at the park 5 days , i also came in winter a couple of years ago .
My best recommendation is the helicopter tour from west Yellowstone , that is totally worth it and if you feel adventurous the beartooh pass on the northeast entrance gotta be one of the most beautiful scenic routes on planet earth , other than that the Geysers in general are pretty cool and utterly unique , only here , iceland and Turkmenistan have them and the ones in iceland shoot to 30 feet , seriously not way to compare , that you gotta give it to Yellowstone , so to conclude i can say that if you lower your expectations not expecting to witness what you have seen on National geographic + you complement with activities outside the park like Jackson hole or big sky in the winter you can definitely have a nice experience , like if you have a better place to go , Lol , or is it ?
In my opinion Glacier national park is way better when it comes to scenery and wildlife + no traffic
