About this webinar


Meet your guide, Elijah Starkey
Your host for this seminar is Elijah Starkey, a co-owner of Yellowstone Recreation Co. and a dedicated naturalist guide in Yellowstone. As a year-round resident of Gardiner, Montana, and a professional Yellowstone guide, he has spent years helping visitors explore the park’s wildlife, landscapes, and history. Elijah’s deep connection to Yellowstone and his experience guiding first-time and returning visitors alike make him passionate about sharing insights that help travelers avoid common pitfalls and enjoy the park to its fullest.

Guide-approved sample itineraries
Yellowstone is massive. The park covers over 2.2 million acres, greater in area than Delaware and Rhode Island combined. In this seminar, we offer two sample itineraries for you to consider, and to illustrate how to go about planning your trip to Yellowstone. What attractions should be visited within a limited time, distances to be covered, possible setbacks (bison jams), and more are considered to help you understand how to navigate the park.

Tips for planning your Yellowstone adventure
This seminar offers tips on navigation, where to eat, wildlife spotting, wildlife safety, getting off the beaten path, and so much more. The talk also concludes with a Q&A to ask any questions not covered during the main body of the seminar, as well as exclusive opportunities for discounts on Yellowstone Recreation Co. guided tours.
