July 29, 2021 - Campfire Lodge Resort



Our travel time today was just under two hours with no stops. We are still in Montana. Drove through Big Sky and even clipped the corner of Yellowstone National Park getting here. We wove in and out of Wyoming too. Gorgeous scenery! 





Campfire Lodge Resort is in West Yellowstone, Montana. It’s still located 25 miles northwest of the town of West Yellowstone. And probably 35 miles from the West gate entrance into Yellowstone. This is a cute campground! There are super adorable cabins here. Some right on the Madison River. Even though we have full hook-ups, bathhouse and laundry room here there is no cellular service. If we step outside we can get one bar. The lady in the camp office said … no internet, no cell service. Guess I better not tell them I get one bar on my site or half the campground will be over. Hah! 







Anyway I have found it’s just enough to text. Most pics take five plus minutes to send so I will hold off sending anything unless we drive back over the pass closer to Hebgen Lake. There seemed to be better service there on our way in. 





Speaking of Hebgen Lake we started getting word in Bozeman about a harmful algae bloom up here. At our check-in there was information posted about it. This means no swimming for Jett here. We can’t even let her wade in the lake or river. She could either drink it or lick the water/algae off her paws and get extremely sick from the high risk of toxin exposure. 



Tim and I spent the evening taking care of Jett. No matter what we did … walk, snack, water … she continued her whining. By the time we got in bed we figured it out … she had been so use to swimming every day, the habit was formed and she wanted a place to go swimming!
