  • Piscivorous Birds of Yellowstone Lake: Their History, Ecology, and Status
    Piscivorous Birds of Yellowstone Lake: Their History, Ecology, and Status Terry McEneaney Yellowstone Lake is truly one of the most recognizable geographic features of the Greater Yellowstone area, and, most importantly, the ecological nucleus for native fishes and piscivorous birds in Yellowstone National Park. It is home to the only current nesting colony of American white pelican (Pelecanus erythrorhyn - chos) in the National Park System. It is also unique for having the highest-eleva- tion nesting records in North America for colonial nesting birds such as the American white pelican, double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritis), California gull (Larus californicus), common loon (Gavia immer), and Caspian tern (Sterna caspia). In excess of 50% of Yellowstone’s bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) and osprey (Pandion haliaetus) nesting pairs are currently asso- ciated with Yellowstone Lake and its piscine prey. The magnetism of this unique area for birdlife rests on its remoteness, inaccessibility, and abundant food resources. Only two native fishes are found in Yellowstone Lake: the Yellowstone cutthroat trout ( O n c o r h y n chus clarki bouvieri) and the longnose dace (Catostomus catostomus). But it is the cutthroat trout biomass that is the main attraction for the piscivorous birds of Yellowstone Lake. The piscivorous birds and the cutthroat trout of Yellowstone Lake have under- gone a kaleidoscope of management practices, public attitudes, philosophical differences, exotic introductions, population changes, and distributional shifts. This paper will intertwine these points while examining the history, ecology, and status of the piscivorous avifauna of Yellowstone Lake. History The history, ecology, and status of the piscivorous birds of Yellowstone Lake is best understood by reviewing three important timelines: those of the park itself, of fish management in the park, and of bird management in the park.

  • Yellowstone National Park! Renowned Snowcapped Eagle Peak
    YELLOWSTONE THE FIRST NATIONAL PARK THE HISTORY BEHIND YELLOWSTONE Long before herds of tourists and automobiles crisscrossed Yellowstone’s rare landscape, the unique features comprising the region lured in the West’s early inhabitants, explorers, pioneers, and entrepreneurs. Their stories helped fashion Yellowstone into what it is today and initiated the birth of America’s National Park System. Native Americans As early as 10,000 years ago, ancient inhabitants dwelled in northwest Wyoming. These small bands of nomadic hunters wandered the country- side, hunting the massive herds of bison and gath- ering seeds and berries. During their seasonal travels, these predecessors of today’s Native American tribes stumbled upon Yellowstone and its abundant wildlife. Archaeologists have discov- ered domestic utensils, stone tools, and arrow- heads indicating that these ancient peoples were the first humans to discover Yellowstone and its many wonders. As the region’s climate warmed and horses Great Fountain Geyser. NPS Photo by William S.

  • Understanding the Role of Yellowstone Lake in the Prehistory of Interior Northwestern North America*
    NORTH AMERICAN ARCHAEOLOGIST, Vol. 33(3) 251-289, 2012 UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE OF YELLOWSTONE LAKE IN THE PREHISTORY OF INTERIOR NORTHWESTERN NORTH AMERICA* DOUGLAS H. MACDONALD JORDAN C. MCINTYRE MICHAEL C. LIVERS University of Montana, Missoula ABSTRACT As North America’s largest, high-elevation lake, Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming, played an important role in the lifeways of Great Plains, Great Basin, and Rocky Mountains Native Americans during prehistory. Various hypotheses suggest that the lake was important during the spring for fishing, during the winter for hunting, and/or during warm months for generalized foraging. Because the lake’s islands contain archaeological sites, some also have proposed that boats were utilized during prehistory at the lake. Using ethnohistoric, archaeological, and spatial data, we evaluate these suppositions about use of Yellowstone Lake. We suggest that annual use of the lake was initiated in early spring when the lake was frozen providing access to islands and continued through the summer. Lithic data and ethnohistoric research support the hypothesis that multiple ethnic groups used the lake in prehistory because it is a concentrated resource area. *The authors thank Yellowstone National Park, the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Study Unit, and the National Park Service for funding UM in its efforts to study the prehistory of Yellowstone Lake. Appreciation also goes to Ann Johnson, Yellowstone’s retired archaeologist, for pursuing the funding for the Yellowstone Lake project. Without her persistence, this article would not have been possible. 251 2012, Baywood Publishing Co., Inc. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.2190/NA.33.3.b http://baywood.com 252 / MACDONALD, MCINTYRE AND LIVERS Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming, is North America’s largest, high-elevation lake.

  • Prehistoric Land-Use Patterns Within the Yellowstone Lake Basin and Hayden Valley Region, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming
    Prehistoric Land-Use Patterns within the Yellowstone Lake Basin and Hayden Valley Region, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming Paul H. Sanders Abstract Humans have inhabited the Yellowstone Lake area for at least the past 10,000 years. Archeological studies of the area are starting to provide a view of the pre- historic lifeways of these peoples. This paper summarizes the nature of this pre- historic use, including lithic raw material utilization, stone tool characterization, and food procurement practices. Changes in landform evolution during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene and their potential impact on prehistoric groups occupying the area are also discussed. Finally, the question of change versus sta- bility is discussed in light of the prehistoric occupation of the area. Introduction This paper summarizes the archeological record of the Yellowstone Lake area; however, in order to place this record into its proper context, it is useful to pro- vide some background information on the nature of Yellowstone archeology as a whole. Previous researchers have described the prehistoric occupation of Yellowstone National Park as poorly known (National Park Service 1993; Cannon, Crothers, and Pierce 1994; Cannon et al. 1997). This is partially true, as there are very few of the stratified, key “type” sites that are necessary for arche- ologists intent on building cultural chronologies or investigating changes in pre- historic life ways through time. There are several reasons for this. First, the volcanic nature of much of Yellowstone has resulted in shallow, acidic soils. Both of these conditions adversely affect the preservation of prehistoric occupations. The acidic soils dis- solve organic remains, which are most critical if one wants to know what animals prehistoric peoples were eating.

Box 173460, Bozeman, MT 59717-3460, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-307-344-2281 Received: 17 April 2020; Accepted: 4 June 2020; Published: 6 June 2020 Abstract: Preventing the interbasin transfer of aquatic invasive species is a high priority for natural resource managers. Such transfers can be made by humans or can occur by dispersal through connected waterways. A natural surface water connection between the Atlantic and Pacific drainages in North America exists at Two Ocean Pass south of Yellowstone National Park. Yellowstone cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii bouvieri used this route to cross the Continental Divide and colonize the Yellowstone River from ancestral sources in the Snake River following glacial recession 14,000 bp. Nonnative lake trout Salvelinus namaycush were stocked into lakes in the Snake River headwaters in 1890 and quickly dispersed downstream. Lake trout were discovered in Yellowstone Lake in 1994 and were assumed to have been illegally introduced. Recently, lake trout have demonstrated their ability to move widely through river systems and invade headwater lakes in Glacier National Park. Our objective was to determine if lake trout and other nonnative fish were present in the connected waters near Two Ocean Pass and could thereby colonize the Yellowstone River basin in the past or future.

NORTHEAST YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK The main plan for this day was to check out the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone area, including the Brink of the Upper Falls Trail, Uncle Tom's Trail, Artist's Point, the Brink of the Lower Falls Trail, and Inspiration Point. We also checked out Tower Falls on the way to the canyon area, before it got too crowded later in the day. Unfortunately, however, as it got too crowded in the canyon area quickly, we had some time in the afternoon to check out other areas. Therefore, we also stopped at a turnout near Dunraven Pass to photograph the spectacular wildflowers on the slopes of Observation Peak, as well as at the Petrified Tree (which was jammed with tourists) near Tower-Roosevelt and the "Forces of the Northern !Range" boardwalk.
