Yellowstone National Park

Wyoming

Yellowstone National Park - The park is famous for its many natural wonders, but it is Old Faithful that must be accorded a major credit for the area's becoming the world's first national park in 1872. Although overshowed by this giant geyser, the colorful canyons, waterfalls, lakes, mountain scenery, and abundant wildlife help round out this wilderness symphony.

Yellowstone showcases the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River which is a young valley, only a little more than 100,000 years old. It slices its way downward through altered volcanic rock. It produces a colorful canyon of exceptional beauty. As though to give emphasis to the setting, the river plunges over a lava ridge to form Yellowstone Falls before continuing its turbulent course. To the Sheepeater Indians, Yellowstone was "The Land of Evil Spirits," and this strange and mysterious canyon was regarded with a mixture of fear and awe.
