Up early today. I had people to find.

I needed to find Josh to give him back some camera gear he loaned me. I needed to find Laurie to tell her about the actions of 755 I saw yesterday. And, I needed to find Doug to get more cards from him.

I was sort of successful on all fronts. I found Josh, but just in passing each other on the road. We talked over the radio and I'll meet up with him later.

Laurie was at Slough Creek watching the den. I watched for a while and a pronghorn came very close by and posed for us

I found Doug also at Slough Creek and got cards. I also learned of a large bison carcass on the west side near Norris Geyser Basin. That's the home of the Canyon Pack. There maybe a chance to see the alpha female – she's a white wolf.

So, I went in search of that. My first attempt failed because I had bad information. Later, I met up with Ray and Lynn and got better info and found it.

Lots of driving around later, it was time to go back to camp. Along the way I saw some geese with 4 goslings near the road at Rainy Lake:
