Pronghorn Antelope. Covering 2.2 million acres in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho, Yellowstone is a dazzling mountain retreat, even without its 10,000 geologic wonders. Thousands of visitors arrive each year to hike, fish and camp in the backcountry, and even more make the pilgrimage to see Old Faithful. One of the most remarkable wildlife sanctuaries in North America, Yellowstone promises an unforgettable glimpse of bison, moose, elk, bald eagles, grey wolves, black bears and grizzlies.

Recreation in Yellowstone National Park

Morning Glory Pool; Upper Geyser Basin. Beyond Old Faithful, there are more than 150 thermal features within a square mile on the Upper Geyser Basin 545332. Boardwalks and paved trails loop around a bevy of geysers, fumaroles, hot springs and mud pots. Geysers such as Grand, Giant and Beehive are less frequent than Old Faithful, but no less spectacular. Ancient Castle Geyser has built up a large and impressive cone over thousands of years, erupting for 20 minutes at a time. Each geyser has a different personality, and one of the pleasures of spending time at Yellowstone is getting to know all the characters. The pool at Anemone Geyser drains, fills again, overflows its edges and bubbles into a 10-foot spout, ending with a gurgle. Lion Geyser roars like its namesake. Riverside shoots a 75-foot column of water arching over the Firehole River. When capricious Splendid thunders to life, it throws off the schedule of Daisy, one of the more punctual geysers in the group. Grotto dowses anyone who gets too close.
