We had spent the night at the Salt Lake City KOA, which was an odd experience. It was literally a huge parking lot in the middle of the city with a little grass and lots and lots of people. Fine for us overnight, but there were obviously some people that stayed there for long periods of time. To each his own, no doubt. Of course some of those campers were amazingly luxurious!
We went to see the Great Salt Lake. On the way there we saw literally tens of thousands of birds doing aerial displays and maneuvers -- it was breath-taking but our pictures didn't come out. We did see some of the buffalo living on the island and took a picture. We also went to the beach and walked out to the water. I must say walking was very painful in our bare feet! I ended up ferrying the younger girls across the worst parts.
That night we headed out for Firehole Canyon and the KOA there. We got in plenty early enough to take a drive through a canyon teeming with wildlife. The poor moose we saw thought we were chasing him! He kept moving along the road, so we would slowly move up and take more pictures.
