Thanks everyone for the great advice. I decided to tow my Honda CRV to Yellowstone and use Fishing Bridge RV Park as a base for the 7 days we are in Yellowstone.
There is nothing wrong with posting an opinion. I did not say anyone else was wrong, I was just stating my preference. I never claimed to be stating a fact. You need to mellow out some Bill.PancakeBill said:Better by quite a bit. Yellowstone is a traffic jam. Tetons are prettier, easier to score a campsite, and more and varied wildlife. And the trees are all standing up straight.
Never cease to amaze, You have your opinion, and that is it your opinion, not a fact. I like them both, but would never make that kind of blanket announcement that one or the other is better. Both awesome places, and next to one another.
Perhaps that (scary feeling) was trying to tell you something. Doing something stupid and getting away with it doesn't mean it isn't stupid to do it again.nibroc said:I've been on my bike in a bison jam--scary feeling--but when I go back I will have my bike to get around
Driving a car is a lot more dangerous than getting close to wildlife. I have been a wildlife photographer for years and yes there is a risk involved in getting close but I don't feel it is anywhere near as dangerous as driving down the road. I bet there is a lot more people killed in Yellowstone in car accidents every year than there is by wildlife encounters.WILDEBILL308 said:I will say it again it is irresponsible to imply that getting close to the wildlife in the park isn't dangerous.
I will say it again it is irresponsible to imply that getting close to the wildlife in the park isn't dangerous. What part of this don't you understand? Just because have been a wildlife photographer for years. Just like I told Bill, the fact you may know how close you can get because you have experience. This doesn't help the un knowing "city" person who doesn't know and who want to get a "selfey" with the cute little bear cub or buffalo.SeilerBird said:Driving a car is a lot more dangerous than getting close to wildlife.

Every one who reads this will understand that the original point was about riding a bike in a buffalo heard. It has nothing to do with driving a car (a much better option in this case) but on being safe around the wildlife.SeilerBird said:No one is saying you should get close to wildlife but it is not near as dangerous as you are making it out to be. I will say it again, driving a car is a lot more dangerous.
So exactly how many people have been injured riding a bike near a buffalo herd? You must have the figures since you speak with such authority.WILDEBILL308 said:Every one who reads this will understand that the original point was about riding a bike in a buffalo heard.
