I jumped the gun last weekend. Today, 11/7 is the Day of Tatanka, National Bison Day. It's the first *Saturday* of November.

Where all have you seen bison? #ParkChat

My first trip to Yellowstone NP in 2018, I was caught in a bisonjam at Lamar Valley. #ParkChat

The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is always good for bison viewing. These are in Grand Teton NP. Wish I could visit now. #parkchat

Response to reports that the admin is still considering a reorg to NPS & Fish & Wildlife Service.

Jan 3rd feels so far away. #parkchat

The next time I was able to see bison in the wild was at Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota! This was in 2017, the last of three epic road trips with my mom. #ParkChat

I've been blessed to have been able to see bison close up and personal (maybe a little closer than I'd like in some cases!) in multiple areas.

The National Bison Range (now CSKT Bison Range) was the first time, in 2015, after a suggestion by Ranger Kraushaar at Grant-Kohrs Ranch. #ParkChat

💦 We almost skipped Sandstone Falls in New River Gorge National Park. 🌿 An easy boardwalk, gorgeous views, and a scenic drive make it a must-see in West Virginia and worth the drive.

Terrible bill & the need for writing congress is not over.
Did Congress get the message that the US is pissed off or is it what damage can they still do before January. #parkchat

A ‘Bipartisan’ Bill to Dismantle the Nation’s Bedrock Environmental Law • The Revelator
The sponsors of the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act say it will improve energy infrastructure development. The truth is that it will fast-track environmental destruction.
