When was Yellowstone founded?

Most likely the first people to experience what we know of today as Yellowstone National Park were the Tukudika Indians (commonly known as the Sheepeaters) about 12,000 years ago. The first white man to venture into Yellowstone is commonly held to be John Colter, who left the Lewis and Clark Expedition in search of beaver pelt, and in 1807 explored the eastern side of Yellowstone.
