Yea Hah Yellowstone What I'm Packing ...
I always think “What I’m Packing” lists are so useful – I love reading other people’s. even better would be the “What I wished I had packed (but forgot to) …” and “Things I packed, but never used or wore!” Let’s hope my “What I’m Packing” list is so good that I have nothing to write on the other two!

Hmmmm – This lot was hard to fit into my case . Fortunately, this trip involves getting around via hire car rather than public transport, so I can take my large case. For future trips, I will maybe need to pack lighter and wash more!
I have some new things in my case this trip:
My travel camera – really looking forward to trying that out.
My fleeced hooded buff – hopefully, this will keep my aching neck warm on cold mornings …
Our head torches – bought because I read in the guidebook that a must do thing was a canoe trip at sunrise to the middle of a lake in Grand Teton where you should see moose around the lake as the sun comes up. Sounds magical – whether we will ever do it I don’t know – but we won’t be stopped by lack of a head torch anyway
