The Lamar Valley was always our favorite camping area due to seeing critters. Bring some optics, pull over, eat lunch and just scan for animals. Some animals will be seen all day, but mornings and evenings can bring bear and wolf sightings.

The Lamar Valley has more wildlife that is viewable from the road than any other part of the park we have found. Bears, both black and grizzly, plus wolves and elk can be seen for the road with good optics, binoculars and a spotting scope with tripod would be great. Each trip we have taken to the Lamar Valley, total of 2, we have seen a grizzly bear guarding an elk kill and trying to fend off a pack of wolves, it was very interesting.
