A deep, chesty bawl echoes from rimrock to rimrock,
rolls down the mountain, and fades into the far blackness
of the night. Only the mountain has lived long enough
to listen objectively to the howl of the wolf.
—Aldo Leopold
Yellowstone
National Park is a land forged by the fires of ancient
volcanoes and sculpted by the force of water, ice, and
time. Established in 1872, it was America’s first
national park—and the first created anywhere in
the world!
Know
as America’s Serengeti, this is home to the largest
population of North America wildfire found in the United
States. Bison, elk, moose, pronghorn, bighorn sheep,
trumpeter swan, and the formidable grizzly bear all
interact in this wild landscape.
Witness
the spectacle of Old Faithful and numerous other geysers
as they explode in breathing eruptions. At Mammoth Hot
Springs mineral-laden waters create ornate travertine
terraces. Thermal waters—brilliantly colored by
algaes and cyano-bacterias—create colorful tapestries
at Norris Hot Springs and Grand Prismatic Spring. Watch
as the Yellowstone River plummets more than 200 feet
at Lower Falls and tumbles into the bizarre landscape
of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River.
Experience
Yellowstone’s dramatic landscape of geysers, mud
pots, and hot springs; mountains, lakes, and waterfalls;
bison, elk, wolf, and grizzly bear—all are revealed
in breathtaking footage and incredible sound. Explore
this astonishing landscape and its denizens in all seasons
of the year—from the lushness of summer to the
harsh spectacle of deep winter’s beauty.
“Yellowstone:
The Fabric of a Dream” is a priceless addition
to any video library and may be the most beautiful film
ever produced on America’s first national park—Yellowstone.
