Watch wild wolves with the experts in Yellowstone's
premier wildlife area. Your hosts will be Dr. Nathan Varley, a native of
Yellowstone whose doctoral research on wolves and elk has illuminated fascinating
aspects of ecology, and Linda Thurston,
whose extensive experience with wolf research and conservation has been
heralded as cutting-edge . Stay in the heart of wolf country, the famous
Buffalo Ranch in Lamar Valley, among its herds of bison and elk. Extensive observation time
takes place in the morning and evening, while
snowshoe excursions follow in the afternoon.
Accommodations will be rustic but
comfortable private cabins. Gourmet meals are
catered each day, and local experts will join the group.
