Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone National Park is America's first and foremost National Park. Established in 1872 by the United States Congress "for the preservation of" its many wonders and "for the enjoyment of the people," and now encompassing 2.2 million acres, Yellowstone is a treasure, boasting more geysers (about 250 active geysers from amidst 10,000 total thermal features) than anywhere else on the globe.  Situated atop a huge volcanic basin, Yellowstone is home to thousands of active thermal features, including the world renowned Old Faithful Geyser.

Yellowstone National Park was established in 1872, originally to protect the unique geysers, hot springs, and other hydrothermal features.  Yellowstone also now protects many historic structures, such as the Old Faithful Inn.  Built in 1903-04, the Old Faithful Inn celebrated its centennial in 2004.  It is a National Historic Landmark within the Old Faithful National Historic District. Other landmarks in the park are the Northeast Entrance Station, Obsidian Cliff, and the Fishing Bridge, Madison, and Norris Geyser Basin trailside museums.

Yellowstone is also a refuge for wildlife.  Look for bears, wolves, elk, and other animals as you explore the park.
