Hope you like smoke. This morning might be the worst I've ever seen. Visibility barely 2 miles. The new normal for the West in August, I guess.

Feel free to pm when you get close to Jh. If I can I'd be happy to wet a line.
This smoke is intense.
Watch out for fresh kill in Lamar Valley, might look for birds circling for a clue, or just ask a ranger. As for hitting a trailhead at dawn is a bit sketchy but plenty of people do it. It's mainly a mind game though. There are other places nearby that kinda wig me out, but not where you are going.
Schwerty, just might take you up on that, will be rolling into your neck of the woods next Weds (not tomorrow), fly back home Sunday.
And yeah smoke, neat....guess we'll just have to see what Mother Nature has in store, at least it makes for sometimes funky sunsets.
my advice: fish until you find fishing the style you like, then say screw it and stay a while, learn the river and have a special montana (or in the park likely wyoming) spot. A home away from home stream if you will.
overplayed to use the term, but I'm fkna stoked! to be hearing that 3:30am alarm tomorrow, couple espresso's and I'm on the way to HIA. Thanks for all the tips/beta, will definitely be putting it to use. Yellowstone portion is pretty much figured out, but down in Jackson....first time there, so kinda loose on the plan other than a short list of waters to fish, sights to see and get a feel for the place and just unplug...
trip was amazing, wow.
Thanks for all the advice & tips, decompressing today, beginning to work on pics..
