Travel Tips
Mountains, seashores, grasslands, wetlands, coral reefs and glaciers. Our national parks protect a multitude of terrains for every taste. And with more than 400 national park units across the country to explore, it can be daunting to choose which one you want to visit the soonest. Luckily, you have help.
Nature & Wildlife
Nat Hab’s journey through Yellowstone is a trip for the true wanderer, embracing the spirit of remote nature travel. This adventure stands apart from the typical park tour, delving deep into Yellowstone’s wilds.
Nature & Wildlife
Yellowstone has been nicknamed the “American Serengeti” because, like its East African counterpart, it is also a vast ecosystem of open plains, savanna and woodlands. It consists of approximately 12,000 square miles and is even home to its own “Big Five” for wildlife sightings— bears (grizzly and black), wolves, bison, elk and moose.
Travel Tales
On a windy, cold, late October afternoon, I walked the streets of the little, sub-Arctic town of Churchill, Manitoba, Canada, alone. I had just arrived there by plane, and I had a bit of time before the official activities on my Natural Habitat Adventures polar bear tour were set to begin.
Travel Tales
Nat Hab travelers Lois O. Gray and Kay Gilmour recently journeyed on our Hidden Yellowstone Photo Safari and shared tales of the park’s geysers and hot springs. We left early to begin the drive to Yellowstone and stopped at Snake River’s Oxbow Bend.
Travel Tales
There are a few rare places in the world where time as a linear construct just doesn’t seem to make much sense; places where the past, present and even the future seem to be all jumbled together, like pack ice piled up along a shoreline.
