There are external and internal influences that can impact units of the National Park System. Urban sprawl can strangle parks and their natural resources. Wildfires can sweep across boundaries and into parks. Rivers can flood and wash out trails and roads, as we saw last June at Yellowstone National Park. Today we're going to be talking about looming threats to Yellowstone and Cape Hatteras National Seashore.  In the case of Yellowstone, it's a gold mine proposed to be sunk into a mountain towering over the park's northern entrance at Mammoth Hot Springs. At Cape Hatteras, it's the Atlantic Ocean and the natural dynamics of barrier islands, which were not designed by nature to remain in one place. Instead, they shift as the ocean erodes beaches and moves sand about. In both of these cases, there are solutions in sight. The question is whether they'll succeed. 

In this episode, Joey talks about the many places to see along the famous "California Highway 395" up the Owens River Valley! Enjoy details about places to see and where to go in this special three-part series on the way up to Bridge Port, California. This episode includes details about Tom's Place, Lone Pine, Independence, Whitney Portal, Alabama Hills, Owens River Gorge, Crowley Lake, Stone Pillars, Rock Creek, Mammoth Hot Springs, and much more! 

Gardiner MT, was once the most significant entrance to Yellowstone National Park. That meant the first thermal feature to be seen by most guests entering the park was Mammoth Hot Springs. Although this area may not be as popular as Old Faithful, Mammoth is worth taking the drive to not only for the springs here but for the history of Fort Yellowstone.

In this special edition show, I interview Dan Stahler, a wildlife biologist who has been working at Yellowstone National Park for 23 years. Dan shares the exciting news of a wolverine recently caught on a trail cam outside of Mammoth Hot Springs. Find out how rare wolverines are, how many they believe are in the park, and what YOUR chances are of seeing one in Yellowstone!

While we are not particular fans of winter, a friend told us that visiting Yellowstone in winter was like being in a snow globe. After hearing that, we knew we had to visit. And while we expected to be disappointed as our expectations were so high, the trip was absolutely magical. It was a trip of firsts for us, including traveling on the Snowcoach that our friend likened to a “people mover out of Star Wars.” We cross country skied around the Geyser Basin and the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, as well as Lone Star Geyser. We were afraid of the cold but it wasn't a problem at all. We even met a young man who hiked and camped from Mammoth Hot Springs all the way to Old Faithful; we share the conversation in the episode. There are Ranger programs and multiple Junior Ranger programs--including a special winter one--and Ranger Rebecca gave us a master class in geology. This trip was truly a unique experience that we will never forget, and can only recommend our listeners to consider a winter visit in the future. For you will never find a place as beautiful, magical, and peaceful.

When, in 1883, Congress charged the US Army with managing Yellowstone National Park, soldiers encountered a new sort of hostility: work they were untrained for, in a daunting physical and social environment where they weren’t particularly welcome. When they departed in 1918, America  had a new sort of serviceman: the National Park Service Ranger. From the creation of Yellowstone National Park to the conclusion of the army’s superintendence, Watching over Yellowstone tells the boots-on-the-ground story of the US troops charged with imposing order on man and nature in America’s first national park. Yellowstone National Park had been created only fourteen years before Captain Moses Harris arrived at Mammoth Hot Springs with his company, Troop M of the First United States Cavalry, in August of 1886. And in those years, the underfunded, poorly supervised park had been visited freely by over-eager tourists, vandals, and poachers. In Watching over Yellowstone: The US Army's Experience in America's First National Park, 1886–1918 (University Press of Kansas, 2020), Thomas C. Rust describes the task confronting Congress, military superintendents, and the common soldiers as the ever-increasing number of tourists, commercial interests, and politics stained the unruly park. At a time when the army was already undergoing a great transformation, the common soldiers were now struggling with unusual duties in unfamiliar terrain, often in unaccustomed proximity to the social elite who dominated the tourist class—fertile if uncertain ground for both the failures and the successes that eventually shaped the National Park Service’s ranger corps. What this meant for the average soldier emerges from the materials Rust consults: orders, circulars, inspection reports, court-martial cases, civilian accounts, and evidence from excavated soldier stations in the park. A nuanced social history from a rare ground-level perspective, his book captures an extraordinary moment in the story of America’s military and its national parks. Rob Denning is Associate Dean for Liberal Arts at Southern New Hampshire University’s Global Campus. He received his Ph.D from The Ohio State University, where he researched environmental policymaking in California during Ronald Reagan’s terms as governor.

This podcast covers the section of road from Gardiner Montana where you can grab a burger at the place that inspired Jimmy Buffet to write the song Cheeseburger In Paradise then on to Mammoth Hot Springs where you can take a picture under the iconic stone entry gate made famous by Teddy Roosevelt and his rough riders and then onto Tower Junction. This 18 mile section of road is also the best place to see bears in the park and I will tell you when is the best time to see them and also give you a couple of other options just in case they are not on the main road. I also tell you about a really great Chuckwagon Dinner where you can ride a horse to dinner or travel in an authentic 100+ year old horse drawn stagecoach that was actually used in the park before the advent of the automobile. I also tell you about one of my favorite hikes in the park down to the confluence of the Yellowstone and Hellroaring Rivers which is a wonderful spot and is the picture shown on the cover art of this podcast and is also a great place to see a bear out in the backcountry which is a once in a lifetime opportunity for your trip to Yellowstone . This hike will also take you to an unbelievable picnic spot, a black sand beach and a great place to catch a fish with every cast.And as usual, I throw in a couple of stores, one of which is very sad and the other is quite eye opening. But regardless, you will be Exploring Yellowstone Like a Local!
