Yellowstone National Park

Thermophile Bacteria

Most likely not. A recent study found the probability of a Krakatoa-sized eruption to be about 1 in 200,000 in any given year. The probability of a super eruption was far less likely. Seismic analysis suggests that the magma chamber is starting to cool and crystallize, making it too viscous to erupt unless there is a dramatic change.

There is a common misconception that Yellowstone is "overdue" for a super eruption, as it erupts every 600,000 years and the last super eruption was 640,000 years ago. In reality the volcano does not erupt regularly and has gone much longer spans without a super eruption. The current volcano has produced three super eruptions 2.1 million, 1.3 million, and 640,000 years ago. This gives intervals of 800,000 and 660,000 years. However, three events is not enough to deduce a pattern.

When Yellowstone was created in 1872, many in Congress were skeptical of the entire idea of national parks. But, these skeptics were convinced to create the nation's first national park, in part, by the promise that no budget would be necessary to run it. Park proponents believed that enough funds would be generated by leasing land to concesssioners to provide all the money necessary for road construction and maintenance. Kaeding,1997

The park is full of bears! You basically have to look for them. If you want to see a bear act like a bear: Grizzlies like open grasslands and forrests and eat mostly grasses, roots and shrubs and some meat. Black Bears like thick vegetated forrests and dense cover and eat mostly vegetation and occasionally meat. If you want to see a bear go where a bear would. Although there are both black and grizzly bears in Yellowstone, black bears and grizzly bears often don't share terratories. Black bears are often seen in the northern portion of the park (around Tower and Roosevelt areas) Grizzlies are found in the rest of the park. For more information visit the park's website at: www.nps.gov/yell or talk to a park ranger or park employee. Please report bear sightings to visitor centers, or to a park ranger. Remember you must stay at least 100 yards away from any bear or wolf and 25 yards away from other large animals. Follow all laws, regulations, and guidelines while in Yellowstone, they are there to keep you safe, and make your trip more enjoyable! Always obey park rangers, officials, and park employees, and enjoy your Yellowstone experience!

The driving distance is 90 miles. Since there is sometimes more than one route, including back roads, this is an approximate but accurate distance. It is based on the most well-known routes between these two locations.

The effects of the Yellowstone volcano will be felt worldwide in the next super eruption. However, the chances of it occurring in out lifetimes are extremely small.

An ability to takes LOTS of photos and video.

Covering for cold and bad weather, which can occur at ANY time of the year. Snow in July is not un-heard of.

Yellowstone National Park has five park entrances, three in Montana and two in Wyoming, however, most of Yellowstone National Park and the "sites to see" are located in Wyoming.

To enter Yellowstone National Park at the south entrance (in Wyoming), you travel through the Grand Teton National Park and the John D. Rockefeller Memorial Parkway, which makes it the best route to enter Yellowstone National Park.

The stats I am finding are not all that accurate, but they're the best I can use, so here goes..

Area: 352 km²

Average depth: 42 m

This gives a volume of 352 * 1000 * 1000 * 42 = 14784,000000 m3

At 264.17 gallons per cubic metre, the answer is 3,905489,280000 gallons

Read that as nearly 4 trillion gallons US. ■

Driving to Yellowstone can be a wonderful trip all on its own. The time that it takes to get to Yellowstone depends upon the route and how many hours that you want to drive during the day.

The most direct route from El Paso to Yellowstone is about 1200 miles, or about 20 hours driving time, and takes you past some other great places on either I-15 or I-25.

West Yellowstone is a town in Gallatin County, Montana. The altitude is 6,667 feet above sea level.

If you wish to spend a night within the Park boundaries, you can either

1) stay at one of the lodges or cabins within the park.

2) camp at one of campgrounds.

3) obtain a overnight backpacking permit.

Note that, for the first two, demand far exceeds supply. You can NOT just show up at the Park without a reservation, and expect to get either a room or a camp site.

yes there is camping in the yellowstone park thing

No.

Depends on how you define "safe."

It consists of two lane roads with not a lot of visibility, some sheer cliffs near the road edge, many animals in the middle of the road, and a lot of drivers that are not watching the road or other traffic.

If you drive with extra caution, it should not be a major danger.

It is probably best to NOT drive a motorcycle in Yellowstone like shown in the link below :^)
