Explore Yellowstone in all its natural wonder, from spouting geysers to forests teeming with wildlife!
Yellowstone: First National Park in the world and one of its greatest wildlife preserves. This immense forest sprawls across 2.2 million acres of land that features erupting geysers, thundering waterfalls, gurgling hot springs and incredibly divers wildlife. A grizzly bear chases an elk in a life-or-death pursuit. An antelope doe chases a coyote away from her young. Bighorn sheep butt heads in angry combat. We also see the great fire of 1988, and how devastation gave way to growth. Go on a guided tour with park rangers into the backcountry, or take a fun stagecoach ride to an early-morning cookout. Most of all absorb the wondrous natural beauty that exists so abundantly in one of our most popular national parks. SPECIAL DVD FEATURES: Recreation!
