Listen Later

Alright, Yellowstone fans! We're diving deep into the park we all know and love (almost as much as Ash loves scoring Savannah Bananas tickets!) 

Today, we're getting into the nitty-gritty information you’ll want to know before you go. Forget the fluffy stuff; we're talking real-deal tips and sticky situations to avoid so you can make sure your trip is epic and not a total bison-traffic jam disaster.

Get ready for the inside scoop on how to actually ENJOY Yellowstone, even when it's bursting with visitors, by learning:

  • The shocking reality of Yellowstone's size and why your "quick drive" is probably a multi-hour adventure
  • Why booking your lodging 13 months in advance is the golden ticket to staying in the park (and how to snag those glorious cancellations!)
  • How to ditch the crowds and experience Yellowstone's magic without feeling like you're at a crowded rock concert
  • Why timing is everything in Yellowstone, and how to avoid the "mushy" in-between seasons 
  • An important reminder about the wildlife in this park
  • We hope you're ready to tackle Yellowstone like a pro! If you want some additional help planning your trip to this incredible national park, then head over to DirtInMyShoes.com and check out our Yellowstone itinerary!
