Locations, per the travel log
The company drifts, and the drift is logged for billing purposes. These are locations that appear in the log, with a photograph from a party who was there on purpose.
the Hayden Valley
Bison scattered over the grass, each one logged as a location and none of them billable. The valley is a mileage expense. The bison are not.

the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone
Yellow walls and a green river a long way down, from Inspiration Point. The point is billed at the standard rate. The inspiration is not itemized.

the Gros Ventre Wilderness
A trail climbing through open country toward nothing in particular. Reimbursable, in the sense that we would like to be.

the Killpecker Sand Dunes
Sand that moves in the wind and is billed by nobody. We considered the model and rejected it as unfunded.

Gibbon Falls
Water sliding down rock beside the road, all day, free of charge. A competitor, technically, in the drifting business.
