Through the frozen forest: Yellowstone on skis (AP)

by Blogburger on January 19, 2012

This Dec. 24, 2011 photo shows Beagan Wilcox Volz skiing the Upper Geyser Basin in Yellowstone National Park, Wyo.  Most wintertime visitors choose to tour Yellowstone by snowcoach or snowmobile. But there's really no better way to become immersed in the park than with a pair of skis. There are some easy outings, such as the trails around the Upper Geyser Basin.   Then there are the tougher ones, including arduous trails to the Continental Divide.   (AP Photo/Matt Volz)AP – I took a deep breath, positioned my skis and shot down the hillside, whizzing through a forest of trees covered with thick, feathered layers of ice.
