    Yellowstone: Backpacking the Thorofare and South Boundary Trails

    November 3, 2019 / No Comments

    Anyone who knows me at least a little bit probably knows that I’m a tea fanatic. This is partially because I like the taste and partially because of my shameful caffeine addiction. I used to drink coffee, but it’s too hard on my stomach, so I switched to tea ten…
