Yellowstone National Park

Enjoy my most recent video of Yellowstone National Park.

Yellowstone National Park is the world’s first national park, established in 1872, famed for its incredible geothermal features, abundant wildlife, and dramatic landscapes, including geysers like Old Faithful and the Yellowstone Caldera. This vast wilderness, spanning primarily Wyoming but extending into Montana and Idaho, protects the heart of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, a crucial large, intact temperate ecosystem. The park’s geological dynamism is a result of a volcanic hotspot, creating thousands of unique thermal sites and showcasing the power of Earth’s internal heat. Beyond its geology, Yellowstone is a haven for iconic North American wildlife, including large herds of bison and predators like wolves and grizzly bears.

Grizzly bears are much larger than black bears, weighing up to 1,000 pounds. The average weight in the Yellowstone area is 300–700 pounds for males, and 200–400 pounds for females. Grizzly bears have a large hump on their shoulders, which houses strong muscles that help them dig for roots, mushrooms and other foods.
