@the.worried.wanderer: If your Yellowstone trip doesn’t include a stop in West Yellowstone, Montana you are doing it wrong. Save this. You’ll need it. 🐺 @destinationyellowstone 📍 West Yellowstone, Montana This is what we got to but honestly we didn’t even come close to covering everything. There are so many more local shops and restaurants here! Go explore and find your own favorites! 🍕 RESTAURANTS *Some vegan options in parentheses! - Serenity Bistro (they can add extra veggies instead of chicken on the Panang Chicken!) - Wild West Pizza (order a cheese-less pizza. DELICIOUS crust) - Yellowstone Beer Co. (Nashville Hot Tofu sandwich) - The Slippery Otter (Beyond Burger) ☕ COFFEE - Mountain Mamas - The Book Peddler - Espresso West 🛍️ LOCAL SHOPS - Eagles Store - Smith & Chandler - The Rusty Bison - New Pioneer - The Book Peddler - Outpost Sweet Treats - Seldom Seen Knives & Gifts - Madison River Outfitters 🏕️ WHERE TO STAY - Elkhorn Cabins and Inn (HIGHLY RECOMMEND!) - but there are tons of other lodging options too! 🐺 THINGS TO DO - Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center (non-negotiable) - Quake Lake & visitor center (formed by a 1959 earthquake that swallowed an entire valley overnight. The dead trees are still standing in the water. Eerie and incredible.) - Bike the Short Line Trail - Hebgen Lake (paddleboard or rent a boat) - History museum (there is so much history in this tiny town! Super cool to learn about it) ✈️ GETTING THERE - Direct flights to from Salt Lake City and Denver - or make a road trip out of it (approx. 10 hours from Denver) Let me know if you have any questions!
