Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks

Description

Truly, Yellowstone National Park is a wonderland of nature. Poets have
written about it, and artists have painted it, but to believe that such a scenic
region is possible, you must see with your own eyes the spouting geysers,
bubbling cauldrons, giant canyons and other spectacular phenomena, all of
which present a flashing brilliance of motion and color which you will
never forget.
Yellowstone is the largest, the oldest and, perhaps, the best known of
America's many national parks. It is at once weird, incredible and
magnificent in its rugged, wild beauty. It is one of the greatest wild-life
sanctuaries in the world.
Frontiersman John Colter discovered the fabulous area by chance in the
winter of 1807-08. Colter had been sent by the celebrated trader, Manuel
Lisa, to Pierre's Hole in eastern Idaho to make friends with the Crow
Indians. Coming home Colter sought a short cut and stumbled upon the
mystery of Yellowstone. When he told his friends of the fantastic land he
had seen, they refused to believe him.
