Visit to Mesa Falls

Just outside of West Yellowstone, Mesa Falls was an absolutely gorgeous way to spend our Memorial Day afternoon. We drove with a couple of friends (Katey Bryce Merril and her husband) to the upper falls then hiked about a mile down to the lower falls. We had some pretty nice weather and it was so beautiful. These falls are two of the last undisturbed waterfalls of consequence here in the west and it was so much fun to get out and smell some fresh mountain air. We strapped Justin into the baby bjorn and Jason packed him around. Let's just say Justin probably had the most fun out of everyone.


Considering Justin's reaction, I'm guessing "fear of bears" is definitely a learned fear. He just stared at it. If it doesn't smile at him, or let him chew on it, he's pretty much disinterested.




It was such a nice trip and made us really excited to go camping when it warms up a little more.
