Default Re: Purple ZR-1 Road Trip to Yellowstone and the Pacific Northwest

Continuing our exploration of the Yellowstone River area, we drove north along the river:




At the next overlook we had a nice view of the river:




The interesting part of that view is seen at the waters edge where there are steam vents:




The Grand Loop Road turns west and heads the Roosevelt Lodge area. We stopped for gas, and when I tried to start the car, it would start but stall in 2 seconds. I suspected a failed fuel pump. I installed my Fuel Pump Emergency Jumper and was good to go in about 7 minutes. While I was fixing the Z, Lyndi found some deer to photograph:



I have a spare fuel pump on board, but I plan to not try to install the new pump until I leave Grand Teton National Park in two more days. I want to have an auto store near by in case I run into difficulties. The fuel pump that failed has only been in the car for about 3 months.


We proceeded on with our exploration, stopping at Udine Falls:




to be continued...
