14.01.2022 Yellowstone has the world’s highest concentration of hydrothermal features. Geysers, boiling hot springs, mud pots and steam vents are all remnants of an ancient super volcano. Truly fascinating and awe-inspiring nature and evidence of Yellowstone’s violent and dramatic geologic history. We started out early for ‘Old Faithful’ and while we waited for its eruption we were entertained by a cheeky chipmunk. A couple of hundred years old, this geyser blows, on average, every 92 m...inutes. True to form it did its work. In contrast, Castle Geyser, erupts about twice a day and has done so for thousands of years depositing silica mineral over and over - that’s why its cone is so big. By flooding the area with silica-rich boiling hot water it has also consumed part of the pine forest and created a more stark landscape. Giant Geyser came next. Water splashes about in its cone creating the steam. In 2007 it erupted 50 times but it’s last eruption was in 2010. Grotto Geyser, possibly thousands of years old, has the most unusual form. It doesn’t blow that often but when it does it blows high and can last from 50 minutes up to 24 hours. In all of this I couldn’t help but notice the beautiful wildflowers claiming their place in a hot, austere landscape bordered by forest. We moved on to Fountain Paint Pots vats of bubbling mud containing heat, gases, acid, minerals, volcanic rock, water and even living organisms...can you believe it? #fengshuicentre See more

14.01.2022 Flew into Las Vegas and headed for the Grand Canyon. It is immense in size (446km long, 29km wide, and 1.6km in depth) and its combinations of a red, fast moving Colorado River, its wall formations and geologic colour are truly awe-inspiring thirty years on from my first visit. Flew over the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead landing deep in the West Rim. MagnificentWe made the most of our very short visit to bold and brash LV by dining at Wynn’s, and 2 Cirque du Soleil shows; Michael Jackson one and the Beatles Love. The latter was stupendousAn early morning goodbye to Las Vegas and Aloha Hawaiian Islands

11.01.2022 Flew to Calgary, picked up our car and headed for the Rockies. Stopped for a couple of days at the Fairmont in Banff and Fairmont Lake Louise. Whilst the Banff building and the surrounds at each property are impressive with a couple of exceptions, the service and staff are not. So many delights on offer in the surrounding areas took our attention.we had our first sighting of Royal Elks (pic courtesy of Moni), squirrels, chipmunks and the alluring blue of the water created ...by ‘rock flour’ at lake Moraine and lake Louise. We visited Lake Minnewanke (that’s correct) and the Hoodoos yes Hoodoos. It’s a strange word for unusually shaped rock pillars crafted over thousands of years from rain, snow and wind scouring glacial material all the while being protected by layers of sod and harder rock material. Finally we took the chairlift for a breathtaking view of the area and had a superb tasting plate of wild boar pate, peppered duck, bison cured slices and venison salami washed down with a delightful Pinot Grigio. We travelled the Icefields Parkway which parallels the continental divide. Visited Athabasca and Sunwapta falls both stunning. Arrived in Jasper and bumped into a friendly and accommodating police and Mountie had to have a pic taken. We found time that evening to celebrate a birthday and had heaps of fun. The next morning we got the red carpet treatment as we boarded the Rocky Mountaineer, met some lovely people had more fun then said goodbye to Canada as we headed for Seattle#fengshui See more

06.01.2022 The establishment in 1 March 1872 of Yellowstone as a national park (2.1 million acres) was a pivotal moment in marking the human relationship with nature. We stayed at the Hotel located on the shores of Yellowstone lake. With a surface area of 340+square kms its North America’s largest high elevation lake and holds an abundance of fish. A portion of the lake sits within a large caldera formed by a volcano then carved and filled by glaciers some 14000 years ago. Being so larg...e it can create its own weather patterns. A beautiful sight Over the next few days we visited Norris and Firehole River Basins the colours and contrasts were simply stunning. Norris feels as if you’ve entered another world. It has the largest collection of geysers in the area. Heated by the Yellowstone volcano, the underground water then travels upward, erupts and rises from steaming fumaroles to simmer in the pools. Grand Prismatic Spring was stupendous. The deep blue of the pool embraced by rings of yellow and orange thermophiles create a prism effect hence its name. It’s the largest hot spring in Yellowstone and while we were there a Bison also decided to visit. Morning Glory Pool was so named because it resembled the flower of the same name. Unfortunately, it is no longer a deep blue due to the lack of respect by some visitors throwing debris clogging its vent. We visited The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone with its turbulent river below. West Thumb Basin is a small thermal area with many lakeshore geysers that are hidden from view submerged in the depths of the lake until water levels drop in summer. Fishing cone is one of them and it gets its name because fisherman would catch their trout from the lake and then submerge it into its boiling water to cook. You often see Elk, Deer and Bison grazing throughout Hayden Valley. It’s the remnants of a lake bed formed when glaciers created a dam, backing up the water and flooding the valley. We left the park via Mammoth springs watching the sun rise and thankful for the special memories and the scenes of Elk, Deer, Bison (yeswalking on the road and right past our car) and Geese rising in the early morning light. #fengshui See more

01.01.2022 Stayed over in Bozeman then hired a car and drove through the beautiful Montana mountains to the North entrance of Yellowstone the world’s first national park. WOW!!!! We began our journey via Mammoth Springs. Upon entering we got close and personal with a group of elks shading themselves from the sun then walked to the Magnificent Mammoth Springs. The springs are sprinkled with a patchwork of shimmering colour provided by Thermophiles (which include spirulina) truly a si...ght to see. We hit the road which wound through carpets of wildflowers, rivers, waterfalls, calcified trees (the ground just got too hot) and unusual lava trails. Apparently, about 1.5 million years ago the lava flow from a volcanic eruption followed an ancient river bed then with rapid cooling created unique columns of basalt high above the gorge as shown in the pic. Before arriving at the lodge we saw a flock of ducks peacefully gliding across the lake and...traffic stopping herds of Bison not quite 5000 strong in the entire park. They just walked right past the huge line of cars without a care in the worldI however, you guessed it....stayed in the car. #fengshuicentre See more
