Livingston, Montana

We went for a hike yesterday in Paradise Valley which lies between Livingston and Yellowstone National Park.

Paradise Valley is high in elevation at 5,000 feet, and it is flanked on one side by the Absaroka Mountains with peaks up to nearly 1 1,000 feet. The Yellowstone River winds through the valley and is famous for its fly fishing.

Our hike was stunning as we passed through waist high wild rose and native grasses.

Sophie went for a bit of a swim in the Suce Creek after we crossed the bridge.

We were caught in a quick thunder storm and waited the rain out.

We hiked far enough to go into the Absaroka Bluetooth Wilderness Area.

All in all, a great hike!

PS I learned how to take a selfie!
