  • 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.

  • Tutti I Colori Di Yellowstone Tutti I Colori Di
    Tutti i colori di Yellowstone Una settimana tra i magnifici colori dei parchi Grand Teton e Yellowstone, proseguendo lungo le spettacolari scenic byways del Wyoming e del Montana. Tutti i colori di Yellowstone Il diario descrive sette giorni intensi di viaggio in due parchi nazionali del nord degli USA da annoverare tra i più belli al mondo: Grand Teton National Park e Yellowstone, tra avvistamenti di fauna selvatica, panorami stupendi, fenomeni naturali impetuosi e i loro sorprendenti colori. La parte finale del diario è dedicata alle strade panoramiche del nordest del Wyoming e del Montana, alcune delle quali sono una vera a propria sfida a cui gli amanti dei viaggi “on the road” non possono rinunciare. Preparazione del viaggio Periodo: fine primavera, ultima settimana di maggio e inizio giugno. Scelta del volo: destinazione Salt Lake City, ben servita da Delta via Parigi o Amsterdam. Possibile anche arrivare in aereo fino a Jackson o West Yellowstone, ma comporta uno scalo in più e orari difficili da combinare. Auto a noleggio: 218 € per 8 giorni, con Alamo. Una Chevrolet Malibu spaziosa e affidabile. Pernottamenti: 2 notti a Jackson in prossimità dell’ingresso sud del Grand Teton, 3 a West Yellowstone a un paio di km dall’ingresso ovest e 2 a Cody a 40 miglia dall’ingresso est. Scartata l’idea di dormire nei lodge all’interno del parco, un po’ perché i posti disponibili erano pochissimi, ma soprattutto perché i costi sono altissimi (a meno di 250-300 € per notte non si trova niente). Da Salt Lake City a Jackson Arrivo a Salt Lake City alle 2 del pomeriggio.
