Description: The tour begins on Friday with supper at Old Faithful Christian Ranch. An evening session will orient you to the field excursion and give you evidence for creation and major problems with the evolutionary theory. After breakfast, we will depart in the camp bus to Yellowstone National park and travel the southern loop to see many of the features Yellowstone is famous for: geysers, spectacular hot pools, beautiful scenery, geology, wildlife, and fascinating design features. There will be teaching at the sites and along the way in the bus. Expect some shorter (easy) hikes at various sites while some longer hikes are available if desired. The next day we will jump in the camp bus again to visit the northern loop of Yellowstone to see mud pots, Artist Point, Mammoth Hot Springs, and other fascinating features. We will once again return for dinner and lodging at Old Faithful Camp. Monday we will be at camp for creation presentations and fun family activities. After the Tuesday morning wrap-up and camp departure, an optional morning trip to Earthquake Lake is included. Others may choose to use this day to see amazing scenery at Teton National Park on their way to their next vacation destination.
Accommodations: Old Faithful Christian Ranch is located near Island Park, Idaho and will accommodate families, groups, and individuals. Stay in rustic bunk cabins which have 10- 14 bunk beds.
