Nez Perce Ford. The Nez Perce came through Yellowstone Park during their flight from the army in 1877. Many tourist saw them as they went through.
The entry from my book from August 25, 1877: "At the Nez Perce camp just north of Yellowstone Lake, Captain Robert Pollock made the following observation about chasing the Nez Perce: “The whole command is weary and tired of marching. This game of hide and seek is getting mighty monotonous.… My men are in excellent health. They do their duty without much grousing. The lack of women and whiskey are of more concern than the Indians."
The edges of Yellowstone Lake. Much of it had frozen over.
A genuine Yellowstone bear. It was about two hundred yards away. Grizzlies have a hump on their back. I am not sure if this is a grizzly, or a brown bear whose shoulder is pronounced by walking.
