Yellowstone was designated the world's first national park on March 1, 1872, with the area remaining largely in the same natural state as it was more than 123 years ago. Yellowstone contains more than 2.2 million acres of steaming geysers, thundering waterfalls, crystalline lakes, and panoramic vistas. The world's most extensive area of geyser activity, harboring more than 10,000 thermal features. Yellowstone is the greatest wildlife sanctuary in the United States, encompassing 3,472 square miles of wondrous beauty. Every visitor is welcome to share the natural phenomena, and enjoy its pristine loveliness, so generously lavished over mountains, forests, meadows, streams, and lakes.

The collections include an 80,000-image photograph archives, fine arts, archaeological objects, historic artifacts relating to the Army administration of Yellowstone and the history of the national park ranger, historic vehicles and furnishings, an herbarium, and biological, geological and paleontological collections.
