Day 6 - May 16th

Today's outing was from Madison to Mammoth and Gardner, WY. We saw the Roosevelt Arch and the markers for the creation of the first National Park. Unfortunately it is sad to see how much damage has been done by thoughtless tourist who pay no attention to the rules to protect these beautiful sights. Today's lunch was at the Mammoth Springs Hotel Dining Room. Today we had one waiter from the Ukrane and one from Portland, OR. Wearing my Customer Feedback hat, I noted that while both Old Faithful Lodge and the Mammoth Springs Hotel are both managed by Xanterra the quality of the food and the service were not comparable. Mammoth Springs was definately superior to the more famous Old Faithful Lodge
