I have the understanding that ranger led hikes go to specimen ridge but am not clear on the particulars. Please call yellowstone headquarters visitor services at Mammoth hot springs at 307-344-2107 to inquire. If all else fails, please call my company, Alltrans/the Driver Provider at 307-733-3135 regarding an “as directed” private tour. My name is Jesse.

I hope this is helpful.
