Did you know that this was the first National Park in the world? What an amazing place with so much to see! We could spend a week here! Briana showed us all around and it was great!
Yellowstone National Park, set aside as a national park on March 1, 1872, is located mostly in the U.S. state of Wyoming, though it also extends into Montana and Idaho. The park was the first of its kind, and is known for its wildlife and geothermal features, especially Old Faithful Geyser, one of the most popular areas in the park.
We talked about how "Old Faithful" is an icon of Yellowstone. We watched a video on how geysers work. We also saw the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and a lot of different wild life.
We talked about the rain shadow, the water cycle and The Great Salt Lake.
