We were happy for the most part with the sign placement in Yellowstone National Park. There was only a couple times I yelled too late “pull over” and we had to circle back to see another amazing area. These series of signs were from the western side of the park.
At major sights there were detailed signs that explained what you were looking at and mileage postings so you understood how far you’d have to walk to see everything. I have lots of photos to share from the Norris Geyser Basin in a future post.
Sheepeater Cliff: This cliff was named for the Shoshone Indians who lived throughout this mountainous region. Their use of the bighorn sheep earned them the name “Tukadika or Sheepeaters.” The cliff is basalt lava that formed columnar joints” when it cooled nearly 500,000 years ago.
Stay tuned for more themal basins, geysers, waterfalls, bison and amazing vistas from our oldest National Park.
Linking up to signs, signs with Lesley.

We have been in Yellowstone NP in September last year. So nice to see your photos!
I haven’t been there since I was a child. Your signs make me want to go~
And then to think that you are walking on the surface of a vulcano that is still working a few hunderd m under the ground.
I have never been to Yellowstone. Thank you for the nice photos, Ellen!
Wow, that Sheepeater Clift looks like giant teeth.
What a fine collection of Yellowstone signs you found. Always loved spending time in Yellowstone, and always followed the signs there.
Fantastic shots of a beautiful national park ~
Happy Day, Week and Happy 4th of July to the USA.
A great collection of signs in Yellowstone. I love signs – they convey so much (usually) in few words.
An amazing, intriguing place. Love the first sign design and Sheepeater Clif has a fascinating name and fascinating rock formation.
Loved. Always seem to be lots of signs when out and about in your country.
Lots of great information on the signs! I have never heard of Sheepeater cliff before. Very interesting!
