Day Four of the Cutthroat Slam, ...Moving Camp and Getting Set Up for Yellowstone Cutthroat


Day Four was our moving day. We travelled through Jackson Hole, past the Grand Tetons, through Yellowstone Park and out the East Gate to set up a camp in the pursuit of Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout. It was mainly a touristy day but after we set up camp, Karen and I headed out to complete our cutthroat slam. We caught a lot of rocky mountain whitefish and finally we started to catch yellowstone cutts. This was not where we intended to catch our final subspecies but we did manage to complete our mission. Tomorrow was the day that turned out to be quite spectacular.

While heading down Sylvan Pass, we encountered this massive buffalo wandering up the pass!
