As is often the case, I'm going through boxes of books. The current one happened to include a photo album from the early 90s. Inside, there are (among other things) 4"x6" pics of my girlfriend's and my drive to Yellowstone from Sacramento. The year isn't certain. It could be '89. Maybe '91 or '92. The buffalo photos brought back a memory.

While backpacking, there was a big meadow with several dozen scattered bison. My recollection is that I circled around and tried to get closer to a pair that were grazing. By the second pic, a third was moving in... perhaps to protect them. In the third, it's closer still. By photo #4, it was apparent that the approaching bison was larger - a bull, I assume. By #5, the bull was getting agitated and coming toward ME. I can't tell in #5 whether it was lowering its head to charge or just grazing, but either way, I knew I was far too close and hightailed it out of there.

We continued our hike. My gal' made me promise I'd never do THAT again and I assured her I wouldn't.
