EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1903 by Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases the tourist accommodations in the upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone Park. The image transports us back to a time when this iconic American landmark was still in its early stages of development. In the foreground, we see rows of tents that served as temporary shelters for adventurous visitors exploring the untamed wilderness of the American West. These humble dwellings stand against a backdrop of majestic mountains and an expansive river, reminding us of the breathtaking beauty that attracted travelers from far and wide. Yellowstone National Park holds a significant place in history as America's first national park, established by President Grant in 1872. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned for its geothermal wonders, with geysers being one of its most famous attractions. In fact, we can spot some erupting geysers amidst the landscape captured in this photograph. The rocky benches scattered throughout add an element of ruggedness to this serene scene while emphasizing Yellowstone's unique geological features. It is truly remarkable how nature has shaped these volcanic formations over millions of years. As we gaze upon this vintage print, we are reminded not only of Yellowstone's natural splendor but also its importance as an ecosystem supporting diverse flora and fauna. This snapshot encapsulates both the grandeur and tranquility that have made Yellowstone National Park an enduring symbol of America's natural heritage.
