Yellowstone country Book

Yellowstone Country. Vast forests, two national parks, wildlife refuges, wilderness areas, thundering waterfalls, gurgling hot springs, and more than two-thirds of the world's active geysers lie within its millions of acres. The oldest national park in the world, Yellowstone, makes up its core. No legal boundaries define the region; it is one of the most intact ecosystems in the lower 48. Here, whooping cranes summer in marshes; elk and bison roam meadows; and elegant trumpeter swans winter in ice-free waters warmed by thermal springs.

The author of Grand Canyon Country now roams the vast region that comprises both the Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks--an exquisite land filled with forests, thundering waterfalls, hot springs, and geysers. Featuring detailed maps and more than 100 full-color photos, it's a great book for trip-planning, gift-giving, and armchair travel.
