How did Yellowstone Park get its name?
1. How did Yellowstone get its name?Reference: Resources and Issues Handbook 2000, Yellowstone National ParkWho would doubt that the name "Yellowstone" derived from the brightly colored volcanic rock in the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River. It would be an appropriate origin, afterall, since thermal features like geysers and hot springs were the primary reason Yellowstone Park was established and thermal features refashioned the canyon's rhyolite to its present brilliance. But then that would be re-writing history.The name actually derives from the Yellowstone River which flows some 670 miles from the heart of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem in Wyoming to the Montana/North Dakota border.French-Canadian trappers, in the 1700s, first learned of the "Rock Yellow River" or "Mi tse a-da-zi" from the Minnetaree tribe in what is today eastern Montana. The Indian name likely referred to the sandstone bluffs that overlook the lower Yellowstone near its confluence with the Missouri River. The trappers applied the French translation "Roche Jaune" to the river.David Thomson, an explorer-geographer, made the first translation of the river's name into English, "Yellow Stone," in 1797. In the journals of the Corps of Discovery, Lewis and Clark refer to the Yellowtone River in both French and English forms.In the decades after the Lewis and Clark trek across the continent, the wild and wondrous landscapes through which this river flows came to be known as the "Yellowstone Country," the core of which would one day give birth to the world's first national park.
