The Dweller of the Cave – Yelllowstone

A low grumbling can be heard from deep inside the cave, it was almost as if a dragon was living in there and you could hear / see the steam he was snorting out.

Solar Squealz

I finally got my solar panel set up, and got my laptop and phone operating 100% off solar energy. It’s really neat going off grid. (Though technically I’m still reliant on refilling propane every 2-3 weeks). The solar panel keeps the 12 volt RV battery charged which runs all the lights, water pump, and fans, while the propane is used for cooking and keeps the fridge running (I know its weird, look up how RV gas fridges work and it will blow your mind). The plan is to boon-dock out here for a week.

Update

After doing some research, I found a neat place to boon-dock at Henry’s Lake, Idaho. It’s completely free and they even have latrines. The weather is so pleasant that you don’t need A/C. This was by far my favorite place to stay at so far. Plus, its only a 40 minute drive to Yellowstone!
I went into town and ended up stumbling upon a free fly fishing lesson by the infamous Bob Jacklin! (Don’t worry, I didn’t know who he was either). There were a lot of aspects to fly fishing that I didn’t know of and I certainly have a greater respect for the sport. Later that day I also painted my first Bob-Ross style mountain range.

Idaho, where everywhere you look is a Windows XP background.

Grand Tetons

Probably the same picture as 90% of google image results of the Grand Tetons. I enjoyed the Buffalo Bois.

All the campsites were full so I stayed in a parking lot. There were huge poops everywhere and I couldn’t tell if they were bear poops or horse poops. The next morning I awoke to a bunch of people making a ruckus outside, some sort of race event was going on. I decided to pack up and move on, but not before taking a moment to appreciate the sunrise.
