yellowstone is similar to the rest of the rockies, except for the hydrogeological thingys, and bison. I live where the buffalo used to roam, but in yellowstone, holy crap they are everywhere.
so you get cool mountains, waterfalls, canyons, wildlife, and then you get bison, gysers, mud pits, hot springs. Think it was 89 I went as a kid, so its been a while.
Saskatoon will only be a blast if the hotel kitchen catches fire.

Both parks (like the islands) are spectacular for different reasons.
Do give a full report after your trip to Yellowstone. Safe travels to Saskatoon as well, LOL! Sounds like a blast.

Not that a bear could live up there but I had to look up how many people died up on the volcano. Look up the one who was washed over the falls with his daughter. Flash flood took them.
Odd to read the comments. While their family sued and won a "no-fault" settlement of $5 mil US, the opinions were divided. Yeah there should have been a sign but the guy should have known better.
Beautiful island. That makes three islands for me. A little on the commercial side but if you catch a good day, the hiking (and camping, so I am told) is outstanding.
