Yellowstone National Park: Norris Geyser Basin Museum & Bookstore - WY - Ranger Stations on Waymarking.com

Yellowstone National Park

America's first, and perhaps, greatest National Park. This is the park that set the global standard for what a National Park should be. After a lot of exploration, President Ulysses S. Grant signed into law the first National Park of any nation on March 1, 1872. While President Grant's administration may be marred by corruption and scandal, Grant gains little noteriety or credit for his role in this historic occassion, which is well deserved.
