Forlorn lakes dotted the landscape.
BISON SIGHTING!
My first ever bison sighting. Pretty amazing. I was becoming afraid that I wouldn't see any, but it was true that you're pretty much guaranteed to see one on this route.
All the bison I saw travelled in herds, usually with a large, shaggy alpha male and a few calves and many sizes of bison in between.
At a pullout.
At every pullout, I was swarmed by either deer flies or black flies. At this stop, it was deer flies. Supposedly they give painful bites, and will even bite repeatedly, but I was never bitten by one.
My second bison herd.
And a third herd of bison. By now, it was getting boring... Just kidding.
Watch out for... you know what!
