After a pick up at Jackson Hole accommodation, drive for a hike around Elephant Back Mountain, taking in flecks of black obsidian beneath your feet on the way to a lookout spot which offers an awe-inspiring bird’s eye view. Take in the glittering waters of Yellowstone Lake on a hike to Storm Point, a relatively flat loop that leads to a stunning vista of the largest lake above 7,000 feet in North America. The hike begins at Indian Pond, a favourite locale for bison, and continues through a lodge pole pine forest to a bluff overlooking the picturesque shore of this hydrothermal fed lake. Before completing the loop, you will walk past enormous boulders, which are home to a colony of yellow-bellied marmots. If you're lucky, you may see them basking in the sun.
