<\/a>Lake Lodge<\/p>\nWe had a leisurely morning at the Lake Hotel and explored the surrounding area. There are cabins, camp grounds, a lodge,\u00a0dormitory for workers, a post office, and a general store in the vicinity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Lodge is rustic and houses a cafeteria and a large laundry room. It also has a comfortable lounge area and rustic porch complete with wooden rocking chairs.<\/p>\n After we explored the Yellowstone Lake area, we drove north to the Norris area to visit the Geyser Basin. We saw the Mud Volcanos and walked on the boardwalks above the warm fragile earth.<\/p>\n The Dragon’s Mouth Spring roared and grumbled loudly as it spewed hot vapor into the air. Warm water splashed out of the hole causing waves onto the opposite side.<\/span><\/p>\n On the way back to the Lake Hotel, we stopped at the Upper and Lower Falls of the Canyon. We drove out to Inspiration Point to see the magnificent view then drove back to the civilization of our hotel.<\/p>\n<\/a>Main Room in the Lodge<\/p>\n<\/a>Guest Telephones<\/p>\n<\/a>Hot Gases on the Northern Banks of Yellowstone Lake<\/p>\n<\/a>Fishing Bridge Raven<\/p>\n<\/a>Mini Volcano<\/p>\n<\/a>Cooking Hillside<\/p>\n<\/a><\/span>Sulphur Cauldron<\/p>\n<\/a>Dragon’s Mouth Spring<\/p>\n<\/a>Hot Spring<\/p>\n
