Wildlife Photography is about behavior and interaction:  Yellowstone Delivers Both

Safari Information Reservations Guide: Brent Paull
Yellowstone in the winter is all about snow, cold, and survival.  Feet of snow blanket the mountains and sagebrush valleys in the park, making it easier to spot wildlife.  Gray Wolves are hunting elk, bison push the snow aside with their heads, bighorn and deer paw at the snow to get to the buried grasses, moose are browsing the willows, predators like coyotes and foxes are digging in the snow at carcass sites or mousing in snow drifts, river otters and eagles are hunting the fish along the unfrozen sections of river. Eating is survival. The bottom line is Yellowstone delivers the greatest winter wildlife photography experiences in North America. For those not traveling with me, we meet in Gardiner, MT just outside the northwest entrance to Yellowstone.  I expect snow storms, wind, clouds, and blue sky days.  You can never tell from weather reports exactly what we could see, but its that type of weather that creates amazing images.  It is the winter weather, harsh and cold, that makes the wildlife encounters spectacular.

Deposit is 50% via check, Paypal, or credit card.  Balance is due halfway between the deposit date and the safari date.  Check the main safari page for other information.  Link


I am a licensed guide in Yellowstone.
I've spent a large part of my 40-year wildlife photo career shooting in Yellowstone - with total days approaching 1800.  To be honest, I've lost track of the number of safaris I've led to just Yellowstone, but several hundred at least. Experience in the park is vital to a successful safari, no matter the weather, or situation.
