We Explore The Park So You Don't Have To

Sedge Bay

Arguably one of the prettiest spots in The Park is Sedge Bay, located at the base of
Sylvan Pass on the eastern side of YNP.
Sedge Bay is open to all the weather elements, but mainly the wind, the sun, wind and more wind.
It’s a great place to stop and dip your toes into the chilly water of Yellowstone Lake.
You can search the rocky beach for flat rocks, and if the water is calm enough, have a rock skipping competition with your friends!
If you’re lucky, you might see some otters playing in the water!
Or catch a glimpse of Canadian Geese dipping their long necks the shallow spots in search
of food and sustenance.

Across the road, you might see a bison or two.
I’ve even seen grizzly bear in this area.
As a matter of fact, a lot of the hikes on this northern shore of Yellowstone Lake
are closed to hikers, due to grizzly bear activity.

The clouds and views are amazing.
And such a great place to sit, meditate and ponder the beauty
that is
Yellowstone!
