Yellowstone Front Trip Sept 3-14, 1977 WooDy & I took off driving at 7am Sept. 3, and reached Innis Falls, Idaho, that evening. Saw two Coyotes in a grassy pasture near Elko but otherwise no wildlife. Ate Phyllis' fried chicken in the motel room for supper. Sept. 4 Stopped at Craters of the Moon National Mon. to look around and chat with the Park Service personnel. Very neat Visitor Center. Near there we surprised a golden eagle eating a dead collared lizard on the highway. At Island Falls we had a visit with Will Godfrey and set up our return visit for some fishing Sept. 12 & 13. Will has a meat shop just across the highway from Henry's Fork. On my trip near Henry's Lake we saw a dozen or so antelope on the south side of the road and a flock of sandhill cranes in a meadow on the north side. Arrived at Mammoth Springs in the Park mid-afternoon. Registered & pick and picked up the key to our apartments at Visitor Center. Leisurely dinner and early to bed.
