The main two areas to view mud pots at Yellowstone

The main two areas to view mud pots at Yellowstone are the Artist Paint Pots (south of the Norris Geyser Basin) and the Fountain Paint Pots (in the Lower Geyser Basin). Formed by standing surface water acidic enough to dissolve surrounding rock into clay. In fact, Ferdinand Hayden, during his 1871 expedition to Yellowstone, described Mud Volcano—the park’s largest group of mud pots—as “the greatest marvel we have met with”. You will smell them before you see them, but either way make sure you do not miss this geological wonder. #VisitPowell #Wyoming

Old Faithful Inn had a printing press was in the basement and printed daily menus though the 1950’s. Meals were served family-style at long tables and could be purchased for 75 cents. A dinner bell mounted at the top of the Inn would alert visitors it was time to come inside for dinner. Free tours of the lodge are offered several times daily from early May to early October. Powell Wyoming is only 90 minutes from the East Gate. #EastGateYNP #VisitPowell

Yellowstone is the only place in the United States

Yellowstone is the only place in the United States where Bison have lived continuously since prehistoric times. Male bison can weigh up to 2,000 pounds, Females up to 1,000 pounds and live for 12-15 years. Bison are the largest land-dwelling mammal in North America, and can jump as high as 5 feet, run as fast as 35 miles per hour. Bison have excellent hearing, vision and smell and typically forage for 9-11 hours a day and feed primarily on grasses. Powell is part of the greater Yellowstone ecosystem. Make sure to plan your trip today and on your way to the East gate you might come across another Bison herd in the Shoshoni National Forest. #EastGateYNP #PowellWY

Handkerchief pool in Yellowstone use to be as famo

Handkerchief pool in Yellowstone use to be as famous and Old Faithful. A ranger would demonstrate the marvel of Handkerchief pool: when a cloth was placed on the top of the pool, it would float a while before being sucked down, into the depths, before magically resurfacing. Visitors would marvel at the example of thermal laundry. By 1928 the pool was plugged up by tourist using it to not only clean their handkerchiefs but also to dump coins, bottles, pins and rocks. You can still visit Handkerchief pool in the Black Sand Basin. #VisitPowell

Yellowstone National Park is protected today becau

Yellowstone National Park is protected today because of Civil War General Philip Sheridan. Sheridan lobbied Congress for protection of the park, including expansion, military control and prohibiting leases near park attractions. In 1886 Sheridan ordered the 1st U.S. Calvary into the park and it ran under military operation until the National Park Service was founded in 1916, that’s 30 years of military control! Thanks to Sheridan Yellowstone National Park Service was formed to take over control of our First National Park. We are also thankful that he lobbied for protections so that settlers did not come in and claim the land for personal use.
