Specimen Ridge Trail hike. Petrified forest remains on the top of a foothill.
It was overcast and raining in Yellowstone, but that only added to the experience. I have been there 3 times in the last 10 years, and each time Yellowstone is different. I would highly recommend summer months, as the wildlife is in good abundance. This trip was in October -- mornings were usually a little chilly but sunny with blue skies, afternoons of rain and even sleet/snow, but then the storm would suddenly be over, the dark clouds would depart quickly, and the sun would quickly appear. One dreadfully wet and windy hike
