Geyser Eruption
Yellowstone National Park, established on March 1, 1872, is the world’s oldest National Park.

Yellowstone is famous for hosting more than 10,000-plus hot springs and geysers, the majority of the planet’s total. Yellowstone’s geothermal wonders are created by one of the world’s largest active volcanoes; its last eruption caused a crater or caldera that spans almost half of the parks size.
We can’t forget about Yellowstone’s most famous geyser, Old Faithful. Old Faithful erupts more frequently than any of the other big geysers and is still as spectacular as it was a century ago.

Yellowstone National Park is not only famous for its massive numbers of geologic features; it is also famous for the abundance of wildlife. Many park visitors go to Yellowstone National Park just to see the animals such as the bison, moose, elk, coyote and more!

With the abundance of geysers, hot springs, wildlife viewing opportunities and plenty of park activities such as hiking, horseback riding and fishing, Yellowstone National Park can keep any park visitor entertained for days.
